Big Thief - Words

Copied!

{Verse 1}
(?...)
(?...)
(?...)
Only ever half on my own
The other half alone with you
(?...)

{Chorus}
It takes so much time to find a line
Now I'm higher than I've ever been
Fires taking oxygen
Words are tired and tense
Words don't make sense
Words are covered in light
Words won't make it, make it, make it
Right

{Verse 2}
Walking down the street
Only this melody on your feet
It's (?...)
Find you in a cafe
(?...)
Self conscious, self conscious

{Chorus}
It takes so much time to feel alive
And I'm higher than I've ever been
Fires taking oxygen
Words are tirеd and tense
Words don't make sеnse
Words are covered in light
Words won't make it, make it, make it

{Chorus}
Takes so much time to feel alive
Now I'm higher than I've ever been
Fires taking oxygen
Words are tired and tense
Words don't make sense
Words are feathered in light
Words won't make it, make it, make it

{Outro}
Takes so much time to feel alive
Takes so much time to feel alive
Takes so much time to feel alive
Takes so much time to feel alive
