Cause I'm gonna be free and I'm gonna be fine
(Holding on for your call)
Cause I'm gonna be free and I'm gonna be fine
(Maybe not tonight)

Now the sun is up and I'm going blind
(Holding on for your call)
Another drink just to pass the time
(I can never say no)
Cause I'm gonna be free and I'm gonna be fine
(Holding on for your call)
Cause I'm gonna be free and I'm gonna be fine
(Maybe not tonight)

It's a different kind of danger
And the bells are ringing out
And I'm calling for my mother
As I pull the pillars down
It's a different kind of danger
And my feet are spinning around
Never knew I was a dancer
'Til Delilah showed me how

Too fast for freedom
Sometimes it all falls down
These chains never leave me
I keep dragging them around

Now I'm dancing with Delilah and her vision is mine
(Holding on for your call)
A different kind of danger in the daylight
(I can never let go)
Took anything to cut you, I can find
(Holding on for your call)
A different kind of a danger in the daylight
(Can't you let me know?)

Now it's one more boy and it's one more lie
(Holding on for your call)
Taking the pills just to pass the time
(I can never say no)
Cause I'm gonna be free and I'm gonna be fine
(Holding on for your call)
Cause I'm gonna be free and I'm gonna be fine
But maybe not tonight

It's a different kind of danger
And the bells are ringing out
And I'm calling for my mother
As I pull the pillars down
It's a different kind of danger
And my feet are spinning around
Never knew I was a dancer
'Til Delilah showed me how

Now I'm dancing with Delilah and her vision is mine
(Holding on for your call)
A different kind of danger in the daylight
(I can never let go)
Took anything to cut you, I can find
(Holding on for your call)
A different kind of a danger in the daylight
(Can't you let me know?)

Strung up, strung out for your love
Hanging, hung up, it's so rough
I'm wrung and ringing out
Why can't you let me know?
Strung up, strung out for your love
Hanging, hung up, it's so rough
I'm wrung and ringing out
Why can't you let me know?

It's a different kind of danger
And the bells are ringing out

As I pull the pillars down
It's a different kind of danger

It's a different kind of danger

And I'm calling for my mother
As I pull the pillars down

And my feet are spinning around
Never knew I was a dancer

Too fast for freedom
Sometimes it all falls down
These chains never leave me
I keep dragging them around
Too fast for freedom
Sometimes it all falls down
These chains never leave me
I keep dragging them around

Love this. I can understand why some (many?) don't like this, but it really works for me.

I like the song and her music in general. I don't understand the need to be so mean. If you don't like it, then just maybe stay silent on the topic. Would it kill you to keep your negative comments to yourself?

Just awful.  Don't understand their fascination with this banshee screecher.

Well, there is some positive: the screeching is not as bad as on all of her other songs

If she's ever getting tired of this, I think it'll be easy for her to find work as a firetruck horn.

This is new? I mean, I like Florence + The Machine, but her/their songs kinda blend together in my head. Maybe I've heard it on another station, but I feel like I heard this dozens of times at least.

 
Amazing, isn't it? They all sound the same and yet they all have a unique ability to irritate.

I can't figure out why Florence + The Machine gets so much play.
