lyrics

Please excuse my style today
It’s not that i don’t care it’s just a phase
The restless dog is at my heels
Nipping, biting, no matter how i pray

The more i try to use my eyes
The more i see the picture start to fray
The moon becomes the sun becomes the moon again
The pendulum will sway

It swings swings swings
Swings so hard
It hits hits hits
it hits so hard

My mind goes walking through itself
Looking for the water in the well
But he don’t know the well’s got legs
And keeps his secret safely from the swell

So please excuse my mood today
It’s not that i’m unkind i just tend to dwell
On everything outside of me
And all the stories you will never tell

It swings swings swings
Swings so hard
It hits hits hits
it hits so hard
It swings swings swings
Swings so hard
It hits hits hits
it hits so hard

Tell me something I don’t know
Before i get dummer
Show me something new
Cause i’m already kind of bored
Yeah, maybe I stole your fire
But can you really blame me?
What’s the good in fire if you’re just going to sit and stare?
