lyrics

Swandive

If the film is not all used
Then point this camera out and gently lean in.
Capture scenes of epic lies and
Twisted rockets circling then screaming.
I sit upon a weathered bench and stare into the sun
This July, dreaming.
Poised to spin and topple through the air
In search of elements to breathe in.

For now… for now.
For now… and now.

And now I sway, unsure,
Coursing with this directed burn
It's not the end of the world
No, no, no.
And now I pale and cloud
As I raise my eyes and shiver
It's not the end of the world
No, no, no.

Knowing that my truthful jewel is safe inside
Reflecting out and gleaming...

And now I sway, bright and unsure
Coursing with a frenetic sun
It's not the end of the world
It's just the end of this one
And now I change lights but I'm sure,
Coursing with a directed burn
It's not the end of the world
It's just the end of this turn.

And now I play in hidden rooms,
Distorted above the waterline
It's not the end of the world
Just an elegant swan dive.
