Sway - Voxtrot

Written by：Matt Simon/Jason Chronis/Ramesh Srivastava/Mitchell Calvert/Jared Van Fleet

I can take a road

Takes a little longer

Walk before the house where we had our games

Suffering life play making we discovered fire

People like you made me so much stronger

People like you made me question blame

Huddled in strength like birds on a sloping wire

Hearing your voice makes me so uneasy

Hearing your voice makes me question fame

Money is deaf to the sound of a lover's cry

The language of loss made me so much older

The language of loss made me lose my grip

The language of loss made me silent as a newborn child

'Cuz everything moves in a shifting cycle

The unison soars and the pressure dips

Making our way steadfast in the skyward mile

And baby I know I will see you someday

Building your house on the very street

You severed your mother's life from your father's land

Finish your home we can join them this way

We talked about peace and a little dream

Marriage and love and divorce we don't understand

And you know I have to sway my leaves and branches slowly

Out in the sun like the silent shout of youth

And we ask why do we take these leaps and chances

Because we have no choice but to wither into truth

And I dreamed you were there

All the vital signs were standing

When I dreamed you were with me

With the summer at my back

And I dreamed you were there

So complete and undemanding

We know the love that gives

Is what the living always lack

And you know I have to sway my leaves and branches slowly

Out in the sun like the silent shout of youth

And we ask why do we take these leaps and chances

Because we have no choice but to wither into truth
