Poet (Dan’s Bedroom demo) Songtext
von Bastille

Obsession consumes his soul
Obsession eats him whole
He can′t say the words out loud
So in a rhyme, he writes them down

Now, she lives through the ages
You can feel her pulse in the pages
Woah-oh, woah-oh-oh

Oh, he's written you down now
You will live forever
Oh, he′s written you down now
You will live forever

Her body lies upon the sheets
Of paper, in words so sweet
He can't say the words
So, he writes them into her verse

Now, she live through the ages
You can feel her pulse in the pages
Woah-oh, woah-oh-oh-oh


Oh, he's written you down now
You will live forever
Oh, he′s written you down now
You will live forever

And all the world will read you and
You will live forever
Oh, he′s written you down now
You will live forever

I have read her with these eyes
I have read her with these eyes
I have held her in these hands

Oh, he's written you down now
You will live forever
The virtue′s in the verse and
You will live forever

Oh, he's written you down now
You will live forever
And all the world will read you and
You will live forever

Oh, he′s written you down now
You will live forever
And all the world will read you and
You will live forever


Oh, he's written you down now
You will live forever
The world will read you and
You will live forever
