Rilo Kiley - Sword Lyrics

Rilo Kiley Lyrics

"Sword"

He fell on his sword
Not two years ago today
And if you haven't noticed
Been waiting for you to take me away

If nothing warrants nothing
I'll gladly give you away
For every goddamned moment
There's something of mine that gets in the way
It's all in the movies I've seen
It's all in the movies I've seen

Lawrence of Arabia
He failed eleven plus
I never went to college
I'm sure it's obvious
I know it's off the subject
And I'm starting to feel uncomfortable
'Cause when I talk about you
It's just like the movies I've seen

There I go I fucked it up for you I know
I should let you go
That's my reasoning
But there's no reasoning
With a melodramatic fool like me
Aw, fuck it, here's your love song
That you been asking for
It's the best I could do without
Saying I love
