Milky Chance - Cocoon (Lyric Video)

Here’s the official lyric video for our 2016 single “Cocoon,” taken from our second album “Blossom.” It was created by Brazilian visual artist Paulo H. Lange.

“I chose this song Cocoon because sometimes we have to build ways to protect ourselves and our feelings, but in the end we end up closing ourselves off; in these moments, sharing our thoughts and feelings with the ones we trust allows us to reach for the outside world.
I wanted to use my own hands to conceive a stop-motion animation that would incorporate the idea of inside versus outside while in the process of making it. I punctured the lyrics into the dark making them appear as the radiant light breaks in or out depending on one’s perspective.
I would like to thank Casa Infânica, Letícia Lopes, Ricardo Kroeff, Vicente Saldanha and Bárbara Martins for lending a hand and thoughts about this project during the filming and post production.”

LYRICS
Eh ah, eh ah, eh ah, eh
Eh ah, eh ah, ohh

I know that you must feel like facing
with ruin, facing with ruin
I messed it up as always, I’m afraid of losing,
I’m afraid of losing
I made you thinking oh so wrong
I made you feeling the worst
And I don’t how to get along
With myself when I’m weakened
when I’m weakened

So let’s go back to our cocoon
On blackened afternoon
I see your heart is bleeding too
Let me bleed instead of you

So let’s go back to our cocoon
On blackened afternoon
I see your heart is bleeding too
Let me bleed instead of you

Let me bleed, let me bleed
Eh ah, eh ah
Let me bleed, let me bleed
Eh ah, eh ah
Instead of you

I’ve been always playing
solid as I’m waving, solid as I’m waving
So I became a liar,
I’ve been underrating, overestimated
I made it really hard for you,
Hard for you to love me
But there’s so many things we could do
And all we need is escaping
escaping

So let’s go back to our cocoon
On blackened afternoon
I see your heart is bleeding too
Let me bleed instead of you

So let’s go back to our cocoon
On blackened afternoon
I see your heart is bleeding too
Let me bleed instead of you

Let me bleed, let me bleed
Eh ah, eh ah
Let me bleed, let me bleed
Eh ah, eh ah
Instead of you

Let me bleed, let me bleed
Let me bleed, let me bleed
Instead of you
