[Verse 1]
Summer saw the calmin' of a siege
We tied up an ocean
And wired down our feet
On a wave when your gunfight
Sung out slow
And I'll walk away, thread the lives I've known
[Chorus]
I want you
Can't unmiss it
We danced against the calm
[Verse 2]
Pile-ups form a forest in the streets
Incapable whiteout
Dawnin' while we sleep
On a wave in the garden
We drowned our blood
I know that your maker
Bowed out before us
[Chorus]
I want you
Can't unmiss it
We danced against the calm
I want you
Can't unmiss it
We danced against the calm
[Outro]
I did not, I did not
Seek to hear the violencе
At war with your wildness
Hours over blinding silencе
Ooh, ooh
