Lyrics Wye Oak – It Was Not Natural
Text:
When I am tired
And late at night go for a walk
I have to work
Or else I do not recognize myself
What my heart wishes is a treasure
Seemingly foreign
But somehow still it is familiar
It could be ember
It could be animal ?
They do resemble
They do remember one another
It was not natural, not at all
Only human hate
Could give us something so unforgiving
It was not natural, not at all
Only human hate
Could give us something so unforgiving
Something so unforgiving
As I expected
This journey hasn’t gotten easier
I have to work now
At things that used to be like breathing
I try to focus
Forgive myself for having so much
I am too busy falling
Or else I am not busy enough
When I see clearly
I know we share the same devotion
The joy is hungry
It was not natural, not at all
Only human hate
Could give us something so unforgiving
It was not natural, not at all
Only human hate
Could give us something so unforgiving
Something so unforgiving
