"Black Swan" lyrics

"Black Swan"

What will grow crooked, you can't make straight
It's the price that you've gotta pay
Do yourself a favour and pack your bags
Buy a ticket and get on a train
Buy a ticket and get on a train

'Cause this is fucked up, fucked up
'Cause this is fucked up, fucked up

People get crushed like biscuit crumbs
And laid down in the bitumen
You have tried your best to please everyone
But it just isn't happening
No, it just isn't happening

And that is fucked up, fucked up
And this is fucked up, fucked up
This is your blind spot, blind spot
It should be obvious, but it's not.
But it isn't, but it isn't

You cannot kick-start a dead horse
You just cross yourself and walk away
I don't care what the future holds
'Cause I'm right here and I'm today
With your fingers you can touch me

I am your black swan, I am black swan
But I made it to the top, but I made it to the top
And this is fucked up, fucked up

We are black swan, black swan
But I made it to the top, but I made it to the top
And for spare parts, we're broken up
But I made it to the top, but I made it to the top

You are fucked up, fucked up
This is fucked up, fucked up

We are black swans, black swans
And for spare parts, we're broken up
