Buoy Lyrics - The Big Roar - The Joy Formidable

All the things you like 

Guided by their charms 

Behind them safely store 

Wrap your greedy arms around them all 

Sail don't try to steer just sail 

You can be hell of a force with the button to a broken man 

Because 

You know I'm impatient 

I've been hounded down before 

The diving bell keeps surfacing 

It doesn't ring anymore 

Did the little boy only get his orders from himself 

Did the whole world revolve his middle class act 

The girl next door hears voices in her head every night 

The mother's tears that he's bringing home trash from the pile 

You know I'm impatient 

I've been hounded down before 

The diving bell keeps surfacing 

It doesn't ring anymore 

Wife still believes life settles like a stream of dust through the beams you lose you underneath 

Did the little boy on his pedestal 

And the girl next once the voice is gone 

And did the whole world and the mothers tears sink the sunshine on the back field 

The grasping is hand is never full 

And the perfect life is just damaged goods 

And you should have talked and you should talk too 

Because in twenty years you'll be a mute
