Wye Oak – The Instrument lyrics
[Verse 1]
Suffering
I remember suffering
Feeling heat and then the lack of it
But not so much what the difference is

[Verse 2]
I was there
You were there and I was there
I can't hold onto my anger
Though, sometimes it would do me good

[Chorus 1]
Oh, look away
Un-animate
You only live to be seen as such
You want it too much

[Verse 3]
Picture me
The idea of me anyway
The instrument you once ignored
It is moving of its own accord

[Verse 4]
Back and forth
Soul without a body walks
It sees love and it sees witnesses
But not so much what the difference is

[Chorus 2]
And if this is the great release
I fear I am a rule abider
Life unfolds immune to favor
But I know the day, and I know the hour

[Chorus 1]
Oh, look away
Un-animate
You only live to be seen as such
You want it too much
