Mates of State Lyrics
"Sway"

I'm kinder as the summer beats around me
It reminds me when I could not bear
To live an inside life, I need escape from
A grown up world, oh

Lying in a grassy parade,
Barefoot dances always the same
When the emcee calls your name
You know you're gonna be prepared

Please sway with me,
I take comfort in what used to be
Testing armies,
Many lifeforms in the dirt, breaking out in bravery

Watching clouds turn into black night
Birthing out excited first light
You sit there long enough and still enough
You'll see a hole punch in the sky

Comets in a beautiful hue,
Flicker in and out of our view
Forming patterns in the sky
You know what papermoon don't lie

Please sway with me,
I take comfort in what used to be
Testing armies,
Many lifeforms in the dirt, breaking out in bravery
Oh, oho, oh, oho.
