"The Swell" lyrics

"The Swell"

I could catch you in a heartbeat
But I let it all play out
Words become the tool
And the loser tends to shout
This room-very high ceilings
Would the roof ever give out?
I sleep it off-suppress the thought
And every momentary doubt

Yeah! I'm the best
That I'm ever going to be
The prime of my life
Passing before me
But I know I will remember
Those who treated me well
Before we fall even further
On the swell

It's all consuming, yes, I'm feeling
Caught up in a cloud
Storming passed the weather forecast
Straight into the sound
Of live TV it's news TV
The lights are on us now
Learn the script you passed the writ
We are all so very proud!

Yeah! I'm the best
That I'm ever going to be
The prime of my life
Passing before me
But I know I will remember
Those who treated me well
Before we fall even further
On the swell

Alone again
I'm home again
There's static on the feed
You're the hero
I'm the villain
That every story needs
You wake up from the nightmare
Not knowing it was the dream
Smell the roses
Spot the forest in the trees

Yeah! I'm the best
That I'm ever going to be
The prime of my life
Passing before me
But I know I will remember
Those who treated me well
Before we fall even further
On the swell

On the swell

Yeah! I'm the best
That I'm ever going to be
The prime of my life
Passing before me
But I know I will remember
Those who treated me well
Before we fall even further
On the swell

On the swell
On the swell
On the swell
On the swell
