Quote:

"Caught" - Florence + The Machine (Female singer with electronic modifications to her music)

It's the hardest thing I've ever had to do

To try and keep from calling you

Well, can my dreams keep coming true?

How can they?

Cause when I sleep, I never dream of you

As if the dream of you, it sleeps too

But it never slips away

It just gains its strength and digs its hooks

To drag me through the day

[Chorus:]

And I'm caught

I forget all that I've been taught

I can't keep calm, I can't keep still

Pulled apart against my will

It's the hardest thing I've ever had to prove

You turn to salt as I turned around to look at you

Old friends have said, the books I've read

Say it's the thing to do

But it's hard to see it when you're in it

Cause I went blind for you

Then you leave my head, crawl out the bed

Subconscious solipsist

And for those hours deep in the dark

Perhaps you don't exist

[Chorus]

And I was thrashing on the line

Somewhere between

Desperate and divine

I can't keep calm, I can't keep still

Persephone will have her fill

[Chorus x2]

It's the hardest thing I've ever had to do – naming the cat? Not talking? Staring into eyes?
