Lyrics Swan Dive - The Sleeper

Hold your breath
Spread your arms
Take flight
The air vibrates in galvanic excitement

Oh, how you wish for wings
Oh, how you wish for wings that work

The truth hides behind silver cloths
You inhale, exhale
Over and over
Lies are like light to baffled moths
Inhale, exhale
Over and over

You have to find a way
Through the barricades
And everything that fades away
Unlearn the patterns

Close your eyes
Clench your teeth
Take flight
Indecency is spread
At the dance of the dead

Oh, how you wish for wings
Oh, how you wish for wings that work

The truth hides behind silver cloths
You inhale, exhale
Over and over
Lies are like light to baffled moths
Inhale, exhale
Over and over

You have to find a way
Through the barricades
And everything that fades away
Unlearn the patterns
Through everything that fades away

Unlearn (unlearn)
Unlearn (unlearn)
Unlearn (unlearn)
Unlearn the patterns

The moment you start to speak
(The moment you start to speak)
The thread unwinds itself
The moment you start to see
(The moment you start to see)
The thread unwinds itself

You have to find a way
Through the barricades
And everything that fades away
Unlearn the patterns
Through everything that fades away

Unlearn (unlearn)
Unlearn (unlearn)
Unlearn (unlearn)
Unlearn the patterns.
