We Float

We Float

PJ Harvey

We wanted to find love

We wanted success

Until nothing was enough

Until my middle name was excess

And somehow I lost touch

When you went out of sight

When you got lost into the city

Got lost into the night

I was in need of help

Heading to blackout

Till someone told me Run on in, honey,

Before somebody blows your goddamn brains out

You shoplifted as a child

I had a model's smile

You carried all my hopes

Until something broke inside

But now we float

Take life as it comes

We float

Take life as it comes

So will we die of shock

Die without a trial

Die on Good Friday

While holding each other tight

This is kind of about you

This is kind of about me

We just kind of lost our way

We were looking to be free

But one day, we'll float

Take life as it comes

We'll float

Take life as it comes

But one day, we'll float

Take life as it comes

But one day, we'll float

Take life as it comes

Oh, one day...
