sleater-kinney - surface envy lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
throw me a rope, give me a leg
i haven’t seen daylight in what must be days
i took the long way down, lost track of myself
confidence fell down the steepest of slopes
but if you get me a line, lend me an oar
i’ll row you an ocean, i could do more
i feel so much stronger now that you’re here
we’ve got so much to do, let me make that clear

[chorus]
we win, we lose
only together do we break the rules
we win, we lose
only together do we make the rules

[verse 2]
i’m breaking the surface, tasting the air
reaching for things that i could never before
the anchor is heavy, i can’t hold the weight
the guilt holds me down, won’t let me be myself
suck it all in, suck it all up
let go of thoughts holding me back
i push twice as hard towards it you see
and the past falls away to the bottom of the deep

[chorus]
we win, we lose
only together do we break the rules
we win, we lose
only together do we make the rules

[guitar solo]

[chorus]
we win, we lose
only together do we break the rules
we win, we lose
only together do we make the rules

[outro]
when we leave say goodbye to your old way of life
i can breathe way up high, now it’s our turn to fly
