Owen Pallett - The Sky Behind The Flag lyrics

The only girl I ever fell in love with Taught me how to drink as if it needed To be taught I’d always give that girl another shot We danced ourselves through difficult times A sheet of noise to wash away our grievance And when I left I told her I’m a sky behind a flag She said I was the guy at a gas station Who would offer to give to you comfort When there is none The language spoken in a service station Oh oh oh men don’t need a miracle Oh oh they need to lose control Oh oh we only need to lose control The drive goes on as our conversation Turns to something something on the radio Then to the drone The engine is our anniversary song And I think, as I look over: lucky you. Lucky me and lucky, lucky you. We will be Together in our strangeness and our safety Oh how do you like me now? Golden calf to golden cow Oh Owen why must you always be First to wake and first to fight First to wound and first to fly Oh don't need a miracle Oh Owen why must you always be First to wake and first to fight First to wound and first to fly Oh I gotta lose control Why can’t I lose control? First to wake and first to fight First to wound and first to fly Oh oh oh oh
