Track No.:1


It's terrible love and I'm walking with spiders
It's terrible love and I'm walking in
It's terrible love and I'm walking with spiders
It's terrible love and I'm walking in
It's quiet company
It's quiet company

It's terrible love and I'm walking with spiders
It's terrible love and I'm walking in
It's terrible love and I'm walking with spiders
It's terrible love and I'm walking in
It's quiet company
It's quiet company
It's quiet company

And I can't fall asleep
Without a little help
It takes a while to settle down
My shiver bones [ship of bones/shivered bones/shriveled bones?]
Until the panic's out

It takes an ocean not to break
It takes an ocean not to break
It takes an ocean not to break
Company

It's quiet company
It's quiet company

But I won't follow you
Into the rabbit hole
I said I would but then I saw
Your shiver bones [ship of bones/shivered bones/shriveled bones?]
They didn't want me to.

It's a terrible love and I'm walking with spiders
It's a terrible love and I'm walking in
It's a terrible love and I'm walking with spiders
It's a terrible love and I'm walking in

It takes an ocean not to break
It takes an ocean not to break
It takes an ocean not to break

[fourtoeight]

Listening to them for the first time, and man, this is good!

[hubbabubblesmax]

@fourtoeight that is exactlyyy what i love to hear!

[ophy4]

I thought there was something wrong with my headphones when I put this song on.

[hubbabubblesmax]

@ophy4 i apologize?

[potatojoe1]

exilie vilify is such a better song by them and deserves so mush more credit

[hubbabubblesmax]

@potatojoe1 wholeheartedly agree, I love that song so much. everyone should have a copy of it.

[vefge]

this is one of my neighbors favorite songs whether they like it or not

[hubbabubblesmax]

@mnbuio DOES anyone care..hm, no i dont think so. Everyones entitled to their own opinion, i respect yours as long as you respect ours.

wasteland? how is this any different from what musicians were doing back in the twentieth century? expressing themselves, writing songs, sharing it with who ever wants to listen. times have changed, so has taste in music. you were all sheeps back in those days too.

@hubbabubblesmax what's funny about that? :)



[Rolanditis]

@unicorn4sure MY FUCKING GOD. Thank you.

[gratedrawur]

This song is so sad. Not because I can understand what he's saying (I can't) but because the sound... it's overpowering.

[gillyweed7394]

I hate that people are always arguing over which was better; Birdy's or the original. Just chill guys.

[FullMoongrn]

I knew this song but I didn't know the name of the band. I thank Birdy who brought me here!

[tharindup1991]

@sarabetzalel1 Her voice is not bad. But for someone who has been listening to this song before the Birdy version ever came out, I can honestly say that she butchered this song.
