When you’ve been finding so much good music lately that it almost starts to feel like life is worth living

[bushmanwest]

I’ve played heartstrings before but not in your key ... this man can write lyrics jheeze

[jacobbaker]

Palace has gotten me through so many tough times

[gabrielaortegaa]

Everyone just finding palace recently. We welcome you with open arms, enjoy this amazingly euphoric band

[coreymichael]

Just discovered palace and I am in love with them.

[justintime]

Give me chills every-time that connection with the opening riff is crazy

[kiel]

I can't believe this is STILL stuck in my head it's been so long!

[skyeflores]

Lend me your brakes again, you’re more than my speed.
I’ve played heartstrings before but not in your key
You tell me you’re waiting for someone but you haven’t heard, no.
You’ve broken promises to me to me, so forget your word.

And again, and again, you’re breaking me down.
Let me in, let me in from the dark of this town.

Why am I bitter, bitter, bitter?
Why am I always led astray?
It’s gonna get better, better, better,
I’ll always hear you say.

Tell me I’m great again and I’ll love you more.
Ride high fake confidence, right down to my core.
Strike a nerve like an airstrike raid, all under my skin.
I’ll wear a mask to cover myself, in the shape of a grin.

And again, and again, you’re breaking me down.
Let me in, let me in from the dark of this town.

Why am I bitter, bitter, bitter?
Why am I always led astray?
It’s gonna get better, better, better,
I’ll always hear you say.

Woooo, don’t let me down.
Woooo, don’t let me down.

This song is Perfect, I really wanted to use it for a short film I'm making, but then I forgot about copyright, but seriously, Palace are going to be massive soon! Pure Genius!

[kenzieu]

The lyrics. The sound. The flow. Absolutely love it ❤

[itsjustalyssa]

I absolutely love this song, within the first 3 seconds I asked my friend what this song was called because I fell in love. This song will forever hold a special place in my heart

[AnnieCross-wrdu]

Golly, this song just made so much sense to me. Constantly chasing love, getting close, then it evaporates...the cycle continues until it drives you mad.

Lyrics

Lend me your brakes again, you're more than my speed
And I've played heart strings before, but not in your key
You tell me you're waiting for someone, but you haven't heard more
You've broken promises to me, so fuck your word
And again, and again, you're breaking me down
Let me in, let me in from the dark of this town
Why am I bitter, bitter, bitter?
Why am I always led astray?
It's gonna get better, better, better
I'd always hear you say
Tell me I'm great again, and I'll love you more
Ride high fake confidence, right down to my core
It's dragging up like an airstrike raid, all under my skin
I'll wear a mask to cover myself, in the shape of a grin, whoa
And again, and again, you're breaking me down
Let me in, let me in from the dark of this town
Why am I bitter, bitter, bitter?
Why am I always led astray?
It's gonna get better, better, better
I've always heard you say
Whoa, don't let me down
Oh, oh
Whoa, don't let me down
Oh, oh

[MARIUS]

2:56 actually literally changed my life and my taste in music Fucking stunning

[alexiaschieffer]

Palace has seriously become my favorite band

[feeltofollow]

I've had a bash at trying to figure out these lyrics, I think I've come close?

Lend me your brakes again, you’re more than my speed
I've played heart strings before but not in your key
You tell me you’re waiting for someone but you haven’t heard, no
A broken promise is to be solved from your word, oh

Then again, and again, you’re bringing me down
Let me in, let me in, for the doctor is down
Why am I bitter, bitter, bitter?
Why am I always lead astray?
It’s gonna get better, better, better
I’d always hear you say

Tell me, I’m braked again and I love you more
Ride high the confidence right down to my door
It’s dragging up like an airstrike raid all under my skin
I wear a mask to cover myself in the shape of a grin, oh

Then again, and again, you’re bringing me down
Let me in, let me in, for the doctor is down
Why am I bitter, bitter, bitter?
Why am I always lead astray?
It’s gonna get better, better, better
I’ve always heard you say

I dig this music because it helps me free myself from my darkness. Every time I am reminded of my own humanity, and how sacred it is.
