Swallow

Can a house be a home till you lay down a nest? Though you might never get there to lay down those eggs 'Cause you're sunny side up, or you're scrambled in fear But you're just not hard-boiled, gotta run somewhere Swallow To and fro You fly so high so low Dancing in pairs, in threes and in fours So drunken, your sailor's waltz Cutting the sky, no fault in your lines Flawless, no roof holds you down Symmetry pure, your missile core No target but living to fly Swallow To and fro You fly so high so low Patiently damned, Goliath of sand Awaiting his watery fate Somehow condones your humble abode A hollow to swallow your pride Can a house be a home till you lay down a nest? But you might never get there to lay down those eggs 'Cause you're sunny side up, or you're scrambled in fear But you're just not hard-boiled, gotta run somewhere Run Swallow To and fro You fly, you fly so high So high and so low So high and so low
