Efterklang – Modern Drift Lyrics

I can keep my head in sight
When the modern drift is all I have

You can pull my head aside
But the modern drift is all I have

When the moment dies
And I come to you
With a broken lie
That I made for you

Will I let you see you're not
With the living ghosts?
Will they catch your sight
Or the back of you?

I can keep my head in sight
When the modern drift is all I have
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh) you can pull my head aside (oh, oh, oh)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh) but the modern drift is all I have
(Oh, oh)

The piece holds firm
But we're all afraid
They will play your hands
Like a puppeteer
And the dreams aren't true
But we know it, we know that tune
That the angel sang to the hollow death

(Oh, oh, oh, oh) I can keep my head in sight
When the modern drift is all I have
(Oh, oh...)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh) you can pull my head aside (oh, oh, oh)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh) but the modern drift is all I have

(Oh, oh...)
It's all I have
