I used to think Depression Cherry was my favourite album from Beach House when it was released. However as time goes on I remember how special Teen Dream was to me ten years ago as a confused outcast in high school. It still holds up when I listen to it today - timeless - and I truly believe that this is their masterpiece.

lyrics
1. zebra
You know you're gold, you don't gotta worry none
Oasis child, born and so wild
Don't I know you better than the rest
All deception, all deception from you
Your love is stag in the white sand
Wilderness for miles, eyes so mild and wise
Don't I know you better than the rest?
All deception, all deception from you
Anyway you run, you run before us
Black and white horse arching among us
Any way you run, you run before us
Black and white horse arching among us
Your love is stag in the white sand
Oasis child born into a man
Don't I know you better than the rest?
All deception, all deception from you
Wilderness for miles, eyes so mild and wise
Oasis child, born and so wild
Don't I know you better than the rest
All deception, all deception from you
Anyway you run, you run before us
Black and white horse arching among us
Any way you run, you run before us
Black and white horse arching among us
Anyway you run, you run before us
Black and white horse arching among us
Any way you run, you run before us
Black and white horse arching among us

2. silver soul
Gather matters of the heart
So we can act a fool
It's incomplete without you
The silver soul is running through
It's a vision, complete illusion, yeah
The needle on the spinning wheel
Collecting silver coil
It gathers heat without you
Whether or not you turned from it
It's a quick turn
To let us in, yeah
It is happening again
It is happening again
It is happening again
It is happening again
The bodies lying in the sand
They're moving in the dark
It is so quick to let us in
We feel it moving through our skin
It's a sickness, infinite quickness, yeah
It is happening again
It is happening again
It is happening again oh oh
It is happening again
It is happening again oh oh
It is happening again
It is happening again oh oh
It is happening again
It is happening again oh oh
It is happening again
It is happening again

3. norway
We were sleeping till
You came along
With your tiny heart
You led us in the wooden house
To share in all the wealth
Don't you know it's true, oh
Norway, a-a-ay, a-a-a-a-a-ay
Norway, a-a-ay, a-a-a-a-a-ay
Seven figures lead the hungry mob
The beast, he comes to you
He's a hunter for a lonely heart
In the season of the sun
Don't you know it's true, oh
Norway, a-a-ay, a-a-a-a-a-ay
Norway, a-a-ay, a-a-a-a-a-ay
Where you thinking that you're gonna run to now
With the beating of a tiny heart?
Hang onto the things that you're supposed to say
Millions of stars, they open to your breath
Norway, a-a-ay, ay
Norway, a-a-ay, ay
Norway, a-a-ay, ay
Norway, a-a-ay, ay

4. You go for a walk in the park
'Cause you don't need anything
The hand that you sometimes hold
Doesn't do anything
The face that you see in the door
Isn't standing there anymore
In a matter of time
It would slip from my mind
In and out of my life
You would slip from my mind
In a matter of time
The face that you saw in the door
Isn't looking at you anymore
The name that you call in its place
Isn't waiting for your embrace
The world that you love to behold
Cannot hold you
Anymore
In a matter of time
It would slip from my mind
In and out of my life
You would slip from my mind
In a matter of time
More, you want more
More, you want more
More, you want more, you tell me
More, only time can run me
More, you want more, you tell me
More, only time can run me
More, you want more you tell me
More, only time can run me
More, you want more, you tell me
More, only time can run me
More, you want more, you tell me
More, only time can run me
More, you want more, you tell me, more

5. used to be
You are coming home, are you still alone?
Are you not the same as you used to be?
As the sun grows high and you serve your time
Does each day just feel like another lie?
Now you know, is it just for show?
Just a foolish game that you hide behind?
Don't forget the nights when it all felt right
Are you not the same as you used to be?
Used to be
Used to be
In an endless night
Could you feel the fright of an age that was and could never be?
So we hold it close when we feel the most
Like a love that we could not leave behind
Turn the wheel to each way we feel
'Til I'm lost and I cannot find you there
Don't forget the nights when it all felt right
Are you not the same as you used to be?
Used to be
Used to be
Coming home any day now
Any day now
Any day now
Coming home any day now
Any day now
Any day now
Coming home any day now
Any day now
Any day now
Any day now

6. lover of mine
You hear my cry, lover of mine
No tear in the eye or fear in my mind
The forest is thick and you don't recognize
We parted our lips and we reached from inside
In a wide open field we know we can feel
Awake and unreal, off, off to nowhere
Off to nowhere
Off to nowhere
Need more people to be satisfied
No fear of a God and no prayer for the night
Come into our minds and you rush through our lives
We parted our lips and we reached from inside
In a wide open field we know we can feel
Awake and unreal, off, off to nowhere
Off to nowhere
The only thing you've got (off to nowhere)
You know you're better off without it
The only thing you've got (off to nowhere)
You know you're better off without it
The only thing you've got (off to nowhere)
You know you're better off without it
The only thing you've got (off to nowhere)
You know you're better off without it
Youngest fire, you decide
You decide what is right
Youngest fire, who decides?
We decide what is right
Near yet so far
Isn't it? (You know you're better off without it)
Near yet so far (The only thing you've got)
Isn't it? (You know you're better off without it)
Near yet so far (The only thing you've got)
Isn't it? (You know you're better off without it)
Near yet so far (The only thing you've got)
Isn't it? (You know you're better off without it)
Near yet so far (The only thing you've got)
Isn't it? (You know you're better off without it)

7. better times
I want you
To know the truth
'Cause I've
Been around before
Thought I
Wasn't looking anymore
Been a fool for weeks
'Cause my heart stands for nothing
And your soul's too weak
Got a will
That's been around for days
Goes far if you want it
It needs to behave
But then you
You come around
Big mistake
I don't want to know
I don't want to know
We don't need a sign to know
Better times
Running around 'cause you beat yourself up
'Cause you made a crack and the one that you love is gone
How much longer can you play with fire
Before you turn into a liar, huh?
Running around 'cause you beat yourself up
'Cause you made a crack and the one that you love is gone
How much longer can you play with fire
Before you turn into a liar, huh?
I've been around before
Thought you weren't looking anymore
But then we
We come and go
Go up in smoke
I don't want to know
I don't want to know
We don't need a sign to know
Better times

8. 10 mile stereo
The heart is a stone, and this is a stone that we throw
Put your hand on this stone, it's the stone of a home you know
They say we will go far, but they don't know how far we'll go
With our legs on the edge and our feet on the horizon
They say we can throw far, but they don't know how far we throw
With our legs on the edge and our feet on the horizon
The heart is a stone, and this is a stone that we throw
They say we will go far, but they don't know how far we'll go
It can't be gone
We're still right here
It took so long
Can't say we heard it all
Limbs parallel
We stood so long, we fell
Tear a moment from the days
That carry us on forever
This push and pull is the force of a wave of time
In the heat of a night we would cry, you are not mine
They said we would go far, but they didn't know how far we'd go
'Cause this heart is a stone, and this is a stone that we throw
It can't be gone
We're still right here
It took so long
Can't say we saw it all
Limbs parallel
We stood so long, we fell
Bright pyramids at night
That carry us on forever
It can't be gone
We're still right here
It took so long
Can't say we felt it all
Limbs parallel
We stood so long, we fell
Love's like a pantheon
It carries on forever

9. real love
I met you somewhere in a hell beneath the stairs
There's someone in that room that frightens you when they go boom
Boom, boom, boom,
The color you say is black is the one you might lack
In the size of your eyes, is there a righteous prize?
I met you,
There's something wrong with our hearts
When they beat pure they stand apart
In the black room, the light, watch the seabird fall
Real love, it finds you somewhere with your back to it
I met you,
You know, you know, we belong by the stream, to the dawn

10. take care
Stand beside it, we can't hide the way it makes us glow
It's no good unless it grows, feel this burning, love of mine
Deep inside the ever-spinning, tell me does it feel?
It's no good unless it's real, hillsides burning
Wild-eyed turning 'til we're running from it
I'd take care of you if you'd ask me to
In a year or two
You say swimming in the lake we'll come across a snake
It is real and then it's fake, feel its heartbeat
Feel what you heat, far so fast it feels too late
I'd take care of you if you'd ask me to
In a year or two
I'll take care of you, take care of you
That's true
I'll take care of you, take care of you
That's true
I'll take care of you, take care of you
That's true
I'll take care of you, take care of you
That's true
I'll take care of you, take care of you
That's true
I'll take care of you, take care of you
That's true
I'll take care of you, take care of you
That's true
I'll take care of you, take care of you
That's true
I'll take care of you, take care of you
That's true
I'll take care of you, take care of you
That's true

[AzeAlter]

This really was the teen dream. I listened to this album throughout my teens. I'm 25 now. Man does time fly

[oarphan]

I want to care for someone the way this band cares for me.

[MrBaronCabron]

Every single track on this is equally as memorable and amazing. Such a good album. Minimalist enough to have on in the background, yet full of substance if you listen intently.

[BensCoffeeRants]

You know the record company is pretty cool when THEY are the one's uploading the album to youtube!
Awesome stuff.

[PJ]

Haven't heard this album in 10+ years, definitely over-played it back then and had to take a break. The flood of amazing memories it brings back is pure magic. Thank you!!! 🖤💙

[SN]

Saw them in Charlottesville, VA in May 2012. It was the best 20 bucks I ever spent in my life.

[GraveyardPoet]

I can still vividly remember the first time I heard this album.

October 2010: a windy autumn afternoon, walking through the falling leaves, with Teen Dream on my headphones. By the time the last fading notes of "Take Care" echoed in my ears, my heart soared.

[chillcopyrightfreemusic]

teen dream is their best album, one of the better albums ever imo

[Flatworldfilms]

This album is completely magical. It never gets old.

[whitesea]

One of my favorite albums in history by far

[claudiavega]

This band means so much to me. It's not just their perfect music but the way I always felt like I was somehow connected to every single song.
This album is like the soundtrack of my entire youth. I come back to it every time. When I'm happy and greatful but specially when I feel sad, because it reminds me how wonderful life can be and makes me remember everything I've been through, how much I've loved, how hurt have I been and all there is to come. Wow. I can't find the words to describe how I feel right now, the immense happiness and the immense pain.
I have to thank the universe for letting me experience beauty. <3

[dreamlarking]

This is one of my favorite albums of all time. I'll never forget when I first heard "Zebra" on the radio in 2010; I was completely enraptured by its epic beauty. I didn't expect the rest of the album to hold up quite as well as its amazing opener, but my misgivings were very much unfounded. Beach House is a special band, and Teen Dream will always hold a special place in my heart.

[nujabes]

her voice is haunting yet beautiful. i don't know what she sings about half the time but she plucks my heart strings with eagle talons every time i hear her voice. sonic mermaid.

[Genesisdoes]

I've been obsessed with this album since the day it came out. 11 years go by fast..

[alexo]

The greatest record that Beach House has made. A near masterpiece.

[damiangodoy]

El mejor álbum de Beach House. Impecable de punta a punta. Tremendas melodías, entre melancólicas y conmovedoras. Una obra de arte *

[ricardorodrigues]

"Used to be" is such an beautiful song, i mean the whole album is great, but that song ... man that song ...
