  • No walls can keep me protected
    No sleep, nothing in between me and the rain
    And you can't save me now
    I'm in the grip of a hurricane
    I'm gonna blow myself away

    I'm going out
    I'm gonna drink myself to death
    And in the crowd
    I see you with someone else
    I brace myself
    'Cause I know it's going to hurt
    But I like to think at least things can't get any worse

    No home, I don't want shelter
    No calm, nothing to keep me from the storm
    And you can't hold me down
    'Cause I belong to the hurricane
    It's gonna blow this all away

    I'm going out
    I'm gonna drink myself to death
    And in the crowd
    I see you with someone else
    I brace myself
    'Cause I know it's going to hurt
    But I like to think at least things can't get any worse

    I hope that you see me
    'Cause I'm staring at you
    But when you look over, you look right through
    Then you lean and kiss her on the head
    And I never felt so alive, and so dead

    I'm going out
    I'm gonna drink myself to death
    And in the crowd
    I see you with someone else
    I brace myself
    'Cause I know it's going to hurt

    I'm going out, I'm going out
    I'm gonna drink myself to death
    And in the crowd
    I see you with someone else
    I brace myself
    'Cause I know it's going to hurt

    I'm going out, I'm going out, I'm going out
    I'm going out, I'm going out, I'm going out Writer/s: Florence Welch, Francis White
