- Closer LyricsStranded in this spooky town
Stoplights are swaying and the phone lines are down
This floor is crackling cold, she took my heart, I think she took my soul
With the moon I run far from the carnage of the fiery sun
Driven by the strangle of vein showing no mercy I do it again,
Open up your eye, you keep on crying baby, I?ll bleed you dry
Skies they blink at me, I see a storm bubbling up from the sea
And it's coming closer
And it's coming closer
You shimmy shook my bone leaving me stranded all in love on my own
Do you think of me? Where am I now? Baby where do I sleep?
Feel so good but I'm old, 2000 years of chasing's taking its toll
And it?s coming closer
And it?s coming closer
And it?s coming closer
And it?s coming closer
Stoplights are swaying and the phone lines are down
This floor is crackling cold, she took my heart, I think she took my soul
With the moon I run far from the carnage of the fiery sun
Driven by the strangle of vein showing no mercy I do it again,
Open up your eye, you keep on crying baby, I?ll bleed you dry
Skies they blink at me, I see a storm bubbling up from the sea
And it's coming closer
You shimmy shook my bone leaving me stranded all in love on my own
Do you think of me? Where am I now? Baby where do I sleep?
Feel so good but I'm old, 2000 years of chasing's taking its toll
And it?s coming closer
And it?s coming closer
And it?s coming closer
And it?s coming closer

KOL is way to good for twilight. Twilight is for people who follow trends and are posers. The audience of twilight wouldn't even get the song. Plus kings of leon would not sell out like that!

Good God, this song is perfect. Dark, depressive, dramatic and also incredibly emotional. But I don't think it would apply well in the Twilight movie scheme,'cause it's way too deep. Nice Work, KoL!
