Lyrics

作词 : Katy Somerville
作曲 : Jeff Dano/Mickaël Thomas
The bigger the picture, the more I wanna crop it down.
The deeper the root, the duller the sound.
It’s borderline boredom that’s kept me around.
It’s more about the marrow than the meat in this town.
Your little puppet paws peel pieces away,
Until pretty much the prettiness is all that remains.
And the pictures on the walls are all faded and framed,
Within the only two eyes that ever witnessed the change.
And I regard that irregardless of the wasted charade,
That the scarlet, pocked cheeks merely marked the disdain.
That the many mocked the meek and so we parked in the rain.
My fingers count the weeks against the line of the grain,
Stay, and dispense of the pain.
You never need to sweep the soil that swells in your veins.
You never need to speak about the sway of the vane.
The gust was just a breeze designed to blow you away.
Away.
Sway.
Sway, sway, sway, sway away...
Sway, sway, sway, sway away...
Sway, sway, sway, sway away...
Sway, sway, sway.
The bigger the fixture, the more I wanna chop it down.
The deeper the creek, the harder to drown.
It’s less about the mess that keeps me hanging around,
And more about the magnitude of nothing I’ve found.
I barely scratch the surface with my shovel and spade,
And if you come around to help I’ll probably turn you away.
And if you come around to hope your hands can hold me in place,
The sap that traps the bee can only cordon the haste.
Hey. You want it this way.
The smile is barely dry on what remains of the day.
The sky is only high when you’ve sunken the stage.
I’ve closed the only eyes that ever witnessed the change.
Hey. You want it this way.
The smile is barely dry on what remains of the day.
The sky is only high because you’ve sunken the stage.
I’ve closed the only eyes that ever witnessed the change.
Sway.
Sway.
Sway, sway, sway, sway away...
Sway, sway, sway, sway away...
Sway, sway, sway, sway away...
Sway, sway, sway.
