Forget the Swan
[Intro]
It's floating through the abyss
Under the brig my head swings down

[Verse 1]
Beware her wrath, the image gone
The Shell is crumbling, fix my frown
This spell would be clear in non-tradition
And stepping on these pieces of pain and smirk
And rape goes through to sin my eyes
And shapes know where the heartache will lurk

[Chorus]
Forget the swan, a stone swims near
A stone has come, if I could cheer
Forget the swan
Forget the swan

[Verse 2]
Drifting among this rubble
I guess the waiting, wished I would
I found a box, untethered and true
Possession it understood

[Chorus]
Forget the swan, a stone swims near
A stone has come, if I could cheer
Forget the swan
Forget the swan
[Verse 3]
How I tried to warn my neighbor
But the corn was much too high
In confusion up and threw him, woke up every day
But it's not too late brother, I'll still say you were mine

[Chorus]
Forget the swan, a stone swims near
A stone has come, if I could cheer
Forget the swan
Forget the swan

[Bridge]
Forget the swan, the dreams are gone
The pain goes on, they fly at dawn

[Chorus]
Forget the swan
Forget the swan
Forget the swan
Forget the swan
