Shearwater – You As You Were

Shearwater – You As You Were Lyrics

Artist: Shearwater
Song: You As You Were

When you fell on the rocks
At a bend in the river
With the blood from your nose
Running hard on your fingers

And for the rest of your life
The electric charge
Of a change in the weather
You were touching my arm

You were holding a feather
And then I opened my eyes
And the world goes racing
Suddenly changed

As the shock of the exit
Leaves you trembling
Like a bursting shell
In the small of your back

Or a jaw bites hard
On a cast of your little line-
And an animal life pulls, surging, away
And you were back on the road

Through the worst of the winter
Through the valley of light
Passing through like an arrow
With your vision collapsed

And a stone from the river
Like a golden medallion
Clutching tight in your fingers
But on the slope, at the edge

Will you recover your life?
You can stand on the back of a shuddering beam
With a pistol, firing shots into the air
You could run in the blood of the sun’s hard rays

You could drive the mountains down into the bay
Or go back to the east where it’s all so civilized
Where I was born to the life
But I am leaving the life

I am leaving the life
I am leaving the life
I am leaving the life
I am leaving the life

I am leaving
