Lyrics to Black Swan
Staying with Alice
She’s doing fantastic again
I’m just the mold in her living room
Playing the funny friend

Late night emotional eating alone
Just worked out why I avoid going home
One day at a time, I am falling behind
Into underwhelm

Black swan that I am
I’m sick of the damn chase
I’m saving a dance
For feelings I can’t place
Mama, turn me blonde
Black swan
Black swan

You said I like to romanticize 2008
You called it what it is, the youth that I miss felt exactly the same
That’s just the guy that I was and I’ll be
Dissatisfied with the nature of me
You breathe the smoke of
My constant emotional state

Black swan that I am
I’m sick of the damn chase
I’m saving a dance
For feelings I can’t place
Mama, turn me blonde
Take my final form
Black swan
Black swan
Lost where I belong
All the signs are wrong
Black swan
Black swan

I’m so comparative
Tired of feeling it
Never free of it

Wherever I am
Is not where I should be
That’s all it is
Still making amends with
My personality
Contortionist

Black swan that I am
I’m sick of the damn chase
Mama, turn me blonde
I’ll take my final form
Black swan
Black swan
Lost where I belong
All the signs are wrong
Black swan
Black swan
