Swallow Me - Rachel Sermanni

You can see I’ve been making an effort

You can see I’ve been working hard, boy

Working hard

And you see, I’ve been putting my trust in

You can see I’ve been laying down, Lord

Laying down soft-side up

Turning it 'round, burning it down

All to the sound of birdsong

It was never a mistake, I was always gonna make

The right road to take was there along

So it’s over, you’re moving out Monday

It feels right, but you still get scared, son

Still get scared

I know you’re feeling like there’s nothing to hold to

No arms open wide to enfold you

Just go home

You can see I’ve been holding for nothing

You can see I’ve been letting go, Lord

Letting go

And you see I’ve been thrown in the deep end

You can see, to the waves, I surrender

I surrender, swallow me

Turning it 'round, burning it down

All to the sound of birds' song

It was never a mistake, I was always gonna make

The right road to take was there along

So it’s over, you’re stood in the station

Come out pale with the reason you’re late now

You’re late

And you run for the phone and your mother

But there’s nowhere to run after that girl

After that, nowhere

Ooh, turning it 'round, burning it down

All to the sound of birds' song

It was never a mistake, I was always gonna make

The right road to take was there along
