When A Switch Flips Songtext
von The Tisburys

You find it alarming, I break with a bark
I find it way harder to poeticize the start
You live in the daylight, I fight with the sound
On corners that take time to lift up off the ground

I work for a way to say to you
It′s once and for all (once and for all)
We'll search for the lock before the fall

It took me a decade, I wore a grey suit
The guards and the ushers took promises to boot
We′ll turn all the lights off and say both our names
The ones we were hiding and the ones that stay the same

I work for a way to say to you
It's once and for all
Once and for all
We'll search for the lock before the fall


But when a switch flips
I feel oh so compromisable
So detrimental to your health
And when that flipped switch meets
An object so unmovable
It takes a buzzsaw to itself

Let′s meet in the middle
Let′s kiss on main street in France
We'll push our noses together and
Teach our eyes to dance

I work for a way to say to you
It′s once and for all
Once and for all
We'll search for the lock before the fall
I′ve given you nothing
Nothing at all
The rattlers hate my point of view
With their bowling ball
The bowling ball
You feel it in your abdominal wall
