Third Of May / Ōdaigahara Lyrics - Fleet Foxes

Light ended the night, but the song remained 

And I was hiding by the stair, half here 

Half there, past the lashing rain 

And as the sky would petal white, old innocent lies came to mind 

As we stood, congregated, at the firing line 

 

Now, back in our town as a castaway 

I'm reminded of the time it all fell in line, on the third of May 

As if it were designed, painted in sand to be washed away 

Oh, but I can hear you, loud in the center 

Aren't we made to be crowded together, like leaves? 

 

Was I too slow? Did I change overnight? 

Second son, for the second time 

 

Can I be light and free? 

If I lead you through the fury will you call to me? 

And is all that I might owe you carved on ivory? 

 

But all will fade 

All I say 

All I needed 

As a flash in the eye, I wouldn't deny, all receded 

 

Life unfolds in pools of gold 

I am only owed this shape if I make a line to hold 

To be held within one's self is deathlike, oh I know 

 

But all will be, for mine and me, as we make it 

And the size of the fray, can't take it away, they won't make it
