lyrics

Swirling keep me afloat in the daydream
I am constantly mean

Swirling operator operator fix me
Feel my world under siege

You're right
I'm really not supposed to like this hollow act
But now my eyes have nothing on the inside

Swirling pulls the elastic under my face
In unforgiving shapes

Swirling loosens the hold of the great chain
While I plan my escape

You're right
I'm really not supposed to like this hollow act
But now my eyes have nothing on the inside

Swirling feel rock 'n' roll while I flow
Dakota waterways bleed

Swirling keep me afloat oh I hope
I can drink from all my streams

You're right
I'm really not supposed to like this hollow act
But now my eyes have nothing on the inside

You're right
I'm really not supposed to
Your love brings me back you know
I try to find it on the inside
