Swallow Me

You can see I've been making an effort You can see I've been working hard, boy Working hard And you see, I've been putting my trust in You can see I've been laying down, Lord Laying down soft-side up Turning it 'round, burning it down All to the sound of birdsong It was never a mistake I was always gonna make The right road to take was there all along So it's over, you're moving out Monday It feels right, but you still get scared, son Still get scared I know you're feeling like there's nothing to hold to No arms open wide to enfold you Just go home You can see I've been holding for nothing You can see I've been letting go, Lord Letting go And you see I've been thrown in the deep end You can see, to the waves, I surrender I surrender, swallow me Turning it 'round, burning it down All to the sound of birdsong It was never a mistake I was always gonna make The right road to take was there all along So it's over, you're stood in the station Come out pale with the reason you're late now You're late And you run for the phone and your mother But there's nowhere to run after that girl After that, nowhere Ooh, turning it 'round, burning it down All to the sound of birdsong It was never a mistake I was always gonna make The right road to take was there all along
