Lyrics Wye Oak – Symmetry
Text:
The avalanche
The afterthought
The passing day
The coming flood
Against the grain
And see what was
Before it was
The morning clock
You wake me up
The howling room
The drinking from
Reacts into
Illusions of
The infamy
We started from
Do you obey?
You are a sign
You’re seen together
But wait in line
While speaking of
The helpless cause
Collectible
And so
And in this world
We’re living in
I live like rain
You wear your skin
I walk alone
I stay alive
For what is mine
Oh, oh, oh, order
Do you know yourself
In the season of
Revealing
Oh, oh, oh, order
Is show and tell
Symmetry is so
Appealing
Oh, oh, oh, order
Do you know yourself
As the final act
Is nearing
Oh, oh, oh, order
Is just guesswork
Symmetry is so
Appealing
The accident
To video
We’re insane
The afterglow
This single end
Upon his skin
The ending swole
That took him in
And my whole life
Is in that space
I have to get cut
Before the pain
I might as well
Believe that they
Received the world
And shy away
And why should I
Be overrun
Open my door
To anyone
I saw you when
You figured out
Hadn’t moved aside
Just didn’t tell
Oh, oh, oh, order
Do you know yourself
In the season of
Revealing
Oh, oh, oh, order
Is show and tell
Symmetry is so
Appealing
Oh, oh, oh, order
Do you know yourself
As the final act
Is nearing
Oh, oh, oh, order
Is just guesswork
Symmetry is so
Appealing
Oh, oh, oh, order
Symmetry is so…appealing
Oh, oh, oh, order
Symmetry is so…appealing
