Maybe That Was It Lyrics - Swing Lo Magellan - The Dirty Projectors

If you saw the surface rip and bloom with rot 

Some part doing what some other part will not 

Maybe that was it 

If you saw a shadow rise above the hiss 

Iridescent and pretend anonymous 

Maybe that was it 

If you saw a weapon that so smoothly transfixed 

Cylinders of language pounded into bricks 

Maybe that was it

If you saw an animal in hard retreat 

Hundred parasites all burrowed in deep 

Maybe that was it
