My Room by Divorce
Tiger: My Room is an ode to unconditional love, these lyrics are truly some of the most emotionally vulnerable I think I’ve written to date; it speaks of a deep desire to be relaxed about showing affection toward someone that you know extremely well. I think familiarity can be scary at times, and being truly seen can make you throw walls up between yourself and the people you want to be closest to. We had a group of wonderful kids singing on the last chorus, the children’s voices I think adds both naïveté and heaviness to the track; this really summarises the feeling we wanted to achieve with this song. It’s like being back in your childhood bedroom and crying and not really knowing why. But it’s joyous too!

Lyrics:
Look at the stars, babe
There’s nothing worth a visit past Mars, babe
We do our best to plan
But a carriage off its tracks
Comes down hard, babe
There’s nothing like the limit to your love
But hey
I’ll meet you in my dreams
And even then we’re vacant
I see sun come through the trees
Is it coming out of heaven?
You can’t see my house if you don’t want to see my room
And you can’t sleep on my sofa if you won’t accept my food
There’s something in my head tonight
That I cannot refute
My brother, you run me through
Oh wow
That’s a lotta cats to one mouse, now
I know you need to find a more acceptable demise than just lights out, honey
I guess I was Reno when you needed help from me
It’s eaten half my night
You know it tears my world to shreds
I need to find out what’s been rattling
Is it coming from my head?
You can’t see my house if you don’t want to see my room
You can’t sleep on my sofa if you won’t accept my food
There’s something in my head tonight
That I cannot refute
Oh brother, you run me through
You can’t see my house if you don’t want to see my room
And you can’t sleep on my sofa if you won’t accept my food
There’s something in my head tonight
That I cannot refute
Oh brother, you run me through
There’s something in my head tonight that I cannot refute
There is something in my head tonight that I cannot refute
There is something in my head tonight that I can not refute
There is something in my head tonight
That I cannot refute
There is something in my head tonight that I can not refute
There is something in my head tonight
That I cannot refute
There is something in my head tonight that I can not refute
There is something in my head tonight that I can not refute
There is something in my head tonight
That I cannot refute
There is something in my head tonight that I can not refute
