Elucidation - Night Verses

Smooth, you soaked right into the floor

Twisted around side to side

You confiscated the night

And I wonder…

If we’d been calm enough to confuse

(You could have blamed anyone in the world)

Now, I gotta ask

If we’d been calm enough to confuse

(You could have blamed anyone in the world)

Now, I gotta ask

How you gonna hold with a chip on your shoulder?

It’s a bad look for you

Yeah, I wonder

How you gonna hold with a chip on your shoulder?

It’s a bad look for you (x2)

Slow, you hesitated a cure

Held under arrogant crime

You contemplated the light

Yeah, I wonder…

If we’d been calm enough to confuse

(You could have blamed anyone in the world)

Now, I gotta ask

If we’d been calm enough to confuse

(You could have blamed anyone in the world)

Now, I gotta ask

How you gonna hold with a chip on your shoulder?

It’s a bad look for you

Yeah, I wonder

How you gonna hold with a chip on your shoulder?

It’s a bad look

No trust!

It’s a bad look for you to right the wrongs

Gnawing at the bone to stop the blood

Cutting off the air to fill your lungs

Hollowing the earth with what I’ve done

Are you gonna hold with a chip on your shoulder?

It’s a bad look for you

Yeah, I wonder

How you gonna hold with a chip on your shoulder?

It’s a bad look for you

It’s a bad look

How you gonna hold with a chip on your shoulder?

(x3)

It’s a bad look for you

If we’d been calm enough to confuse (x2)
