At the least come join me
|
within the belly of a big blue beast
|
set asail, catch a breeze
|
and come on
|
|
Don't forget to fill your suitcase
|
now watch it sink
|
'cause where we're going we don't need a thing
|
Not a map, or a seed,
|
|
'cause where we've been is who we used to be
|
We started wrapping our regrets in cloth
|
are you defined by all the things you want
|
or did you get caught up in the things that we are not?
|
|
You were born to believe you can't get lost
|
So when you run you always get to far
|
Now there's nothing you haven't seen,
|
but where we're headed we have never been
|
|
Past the pavement that we used to walk
|
Past the people that we used to know
|
now come on, go
|
past the people that have broke our hearts
|
we started laughing at them from afar,
|
but now we've climbed too high without a rope
|
now come on, go
|
|
No, we are not swans
|
nor are we as ugly as we think we are
|
we don't take to compliments, but please don't stop
|
now come on, come on
|
|
We are not swans
|
We fit into each other we are Russian dolls
|
where somewhere in the center sits a beating heart
|
but come on, come on
|
We are not swans
|
|
now do you feel we've gone too far
|
or do you feel we've reached the top
|
or do you feel like letting go
|
now come on, hold on
|
|
we are not swans
|
nor are we as ugly as we think we are
|
We aren't falling fast but we are falling far
|
now come on, come on
|
we are not swans
|
our fathers gave us features that we didn't want
|
our mothers claim those features made them fall in love
|
but come on, come on
|
|
we are swans
|
we are flying higher than our counterparts
|
we have got each other I'd say that's enough
|
now come on,
|
come on,
|
come on.
