Featherweight - Fleet Foxes

All this time I’ve been hanging on

To an edge I caught when we both were young

That the world I won wasn’t near enough

Always distant, always all

In all that war, I’d forgotten how

Many men might die for what I’d renounced

I was staging life as a battleground

No I let that grasping fall

May the last long year be forgiven

All that war left within it

I couldn’t, though I’m beginning to

And we’ve only made it together

Feel some change in the weather

I couldn’t, though I’m beginning to

And though it’s all so uncertain, cold

All the rafters cracked, all the copper sold

There’s a ration back in a manifold

If you need it or forgot

May the last long year be forgiven

All that war left within it

I couldn’t, though I’m beginning to

And we’ve only made it together

Feel some change in the weather

I couldn’t, though I’m beginning to

And somehow I see

It’s free

And with love and hate in the balance

One last way past the malice

One warm day’s all I really need

And with love and hate in the balance

One last way past the malice

One warm day is all I really need
