Lyrics

Really Really Light

I am blurry on this here particular scene
More like a radio static, it's a noise in between
How many lives have you pulled from the air?
You're not seeing them now, but they're all more or less there

What were the odds on this bait and the switch?
Knowing your choices was the pantheon or the ditch
Slept on my chance and I'll do it again
Now my arm is asleep, not done shaking it awake yet

We sit around and talk about the weather
My heart just like a feather
Really really light
Really really light

I am blurry on this here particular scene
That I'm trying to paint if you'd sit still for me
Paid off all the vultures up in the air
I'm not seeing them, so we must be more or less square now

We sit around and talk about the weather
My heart just like a feather
Really, really light
Really, really light

Really, really light (really light)
Really, really light (really light)
Really, really light (really light)
Really, really light (really light)

We sit around and talk about the weather
My heart just like a feather
Really, really light
Really, really light
Really, really light
Really, really light

(Really, really light)
