Youth Lyrics

They didn't warn me
When I was running wild
The dragons breathing fire
In the backyard at night

We live in circles
And it's so hard to breathe
Maybe the same old fears
What have we here?
Don't bring me down
With you

Now I'm just chasing time
With a thousand dreams I'm holding heavy
And as we cross the line these fading beats have all been severed
Don't tell me our Youth is running out
It's only just begun

If I asked you for good news
Would you smile and turn away?
It's like a bad dream
That is too afraid to wake

There are many among us
And we're changing all the time
Maybe the same old fears
What have we here?
Don't bring me down
With you

Now I'm just chasing time
With a thousand dreams I'm holding heavy
And as we cross the line these fading beats have all been severed
Don't tell me our youth is running out
It's only just begun

These fading beats
These fading beats

Now I'm just chasing time
With a thousand dreams I'm holding heavy
And as we cross the line these fading beats have all been severed
Don't tell me our youth is running out
It's only just begun

These fading beats
A thousand dreams
These fading beats
A thousand dreams
It's only just begun

Youth

Louisa Rose Allen is an English singer and songwriter who records under the name of Foxes. This was one of the first tunes that she penned and was originally released by independent label Neon Gold Records in 2011. "Don't tell me our youth is running out, it's only just begun" she sings over resplendent synths and industrial percussion. Foxes said: "It was the first song where I thought, 'OK, now I can see the vision, now I can see the album'."

The song only started getting airplay after Foxes guested on hit singles for Zedd and Rudimental, which gave her the necessary exposure.

This was used to soundtrack a TV commercial promoting the Unrivalled Collection of Designers at Debenhams department stores. Foxes can also be seen briefly in the ad.

Foxes told Digital Spy regarding the song's accompanying music video: "'Youth' is about having these jobs... being stuck in a job or a life where you're not living your dream. The video talks about that visually."

"There's the fire coming up and then we go into this magical world," she added, "where we're like, 'F--k it, let's do what we want!'"

Foxes penned the song with help from producer Jonny 'Ghostwriter' Harris who also co-wrote Rudimental's chart-topper "Waiting All Night." The lyrics were inspired by the singer's young-at-heart, single-parent mum.

Foxes told Radio.com that she wrote the song to let others know that just because you're getting older doesn't mean you have to give up your childhood dreams. "I definitely think I was brought up to have this idea that you can do what you love and you can kind of stay a big kid and have that imagination," she said. "You can do what you love."

Let Go For Tonight Lyrics

Fell from the sky
We fell from the sky and started walking
Leavin' our footprints on the ground

It might be a prayer
Or maybe a piece of conversation
Wherever we go we make a sound

So I call your name, the only thing I know
Is I need you here, will you be gone forever?
All that I know, all that I know is we're here tonight
Turn off the lights

Let Go For Tonight baby
Let love in your life and be shown (turn off the lights)
Let go for tonight baby, who needs sleep tonight?
I need to let it go, let it go
Let it go, let it go, turn off the lights
Let love in your life baby, who needs sleep tonight?

I wanna drive
I wanna drive into the open
Lookin' for reasons I can't find

So I call your name, the only thing I know
Is I need you here, will you be gone forever?
All that I know, all that I know is we're here tonight
Turn off the lights

Let go for tonight baby
Let love in your life and be shown (turn off the lights)
Let go for tonight baby, who needs sleep tonight?
I need to let it go, let it go
Let it go, let it go, turn off the lights
Let love in your life baby, who needs sleep tonight?

I need to let go, let go
Let go, let go
I need to let go, let go
Before we're gone, gone, gone

So I call your name, the only thing I know
Is I need you here, will you be gone forever?
All that I know, all that I know
Is I need you here, will you be gone forever?

Let go for tonight baby
Let love in your life and be shown (turn off the lights)
Let go for tonight baby, who needs sleep tonight?
I need to let it go, let it go
Let it go, let it go, turn off the lights
Let love in your life baby, who needs sleep tonight?

Let go, let go
Let go, let go
I need to let go, let go
(Before we go, go, go)

Fell from the sky
We fell from the sky and started walking
Leavin' our footprints on the ground

Let Go For Tonight

The original version of this anthemic ode to all-nighters featured on Foxes' Warrior EP, which was released in May 2012. She then re-recorded the tune, sprucing up the original stripped down, piano-led production for her second single to be released from Glorious.

Foxes wrote the song with singer-songwriter Kid Harpoon, whose other credits include Florence + the Machine's "Shake It Out," Calvin Harris' "Sweet Nothing" and Jessie Ware's "Wildest Moments."

The song's music video involves Foxes and several others in a food fight. It was the singer's love of cakes the encouraged her to pitch the idea to record bosses. "I have had this idea for a music video for years," she told The Birmingham Mail. "It was a dream to go into a record company and for them to ask me what I want to do for the video. I said 'can I shoot cake out of a cannon and could you make that happen?' It was like an eight year old was in control."

White Coats Lyrics

As a child, my mother said to me,
"Don't be afraid to lead the way you see"
And it's only you who knows
Nobody else can see

But do I chase myself into the dark?
In the thousand ways to lead me back to the start
But you make it easy, you
To be who I want to be

And if the men in White Coats are coming
I know you'll still be there for me
To chase down the wolves around us ('round us, 'round us)
Oh, oh, oh, ohh
I keep the memories inside my mind
To show me how to leave the darkness
You will take me home one day, believe me

Take my hand and lead me out from here
Hunted down, their footsteps drawing near
I knew you would come for me
I’m sorry you're in so deep

And if the men in white coats are coming
I know you'll still be there for me
To chase down the wolves around us ('round us, 'round us)
Oh, oh, oh, ohh
I keep the memories inside my mind
To show me how to leave the darkness
You will take me home one day, believe me

And I was so scared, I could not see the light
I didn't want to be alone
But you just stand there, watch them hold me down
I need to know that you're around

And I was so scared, I could not see the light
I didn't want to be alone
But you just stand there, watch them hold me down
I need to know that you're around

White Coats

Many of the tracks on Foxes debut album, Glorious, are about Foxes' first love. This song focuses on the singer's struggle with anxiety and how her boyfriend offered her comfort when she needed it most.

"I was obviously madly in love," she told Radio.com . "But the song is about my anxieties. That doesn't get brought up enough, anxiety and panic attacks. It's a problem a lot of people face. So it's a love story, but it's a crazy love story."
