Tidal Swells Lyrics by Crake

The Politics of Lonely

0

[Verse 1]
The birds don't sing so easily
A subtle stealing of the night begins
With city lights turned on too bright
Until there’s no surprise in sunrise
Surprise in sunrise

[Verse 2]
But you can always hear them sing
You catch the sound, you write it down
At 75, 75
You're looking like your heart got wise
Like your heart got wise

[Verse 3]
So when we're bursting at the seams
When all our thoughts are cracked like skin on playground leaves
We’ll be all right, yeah we'll be just fine
When I said that's how the light gets in
It's how the light gets in

[Chorus]
It's not the storm to break us
It's not the way that this'll end
We'll fill the cracks with gold, say
It’s not the wind that’s beating wings

[Verse 4]
So I was always gonna win
At night we saved the lives of fish that couldn't swim
So I’ll be all right, yeah I'll be just fine
'Cause I lay down when my fins get tired
When my fins get tired

[Verse 5]
So be that compass here with me
No way of getting lost that I can see
One day I might like to try
Like her I'll find desire in fault line
Desire in fault line
