Lyrics Modern Drift - Efterklang

Modern Drift

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
You can pull my head aside
But the modern drift is all I have
We could be so strong
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:
«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
«It's all I have»
