Big Red Machine - Phoenix lyrics

[Verse 1: Robin Pecknold] Out in the loading bay light Watching the fog recede Divided the flame you slowly gave to me Sign of relief in my mind But I only caught you the one time Later I'd watch you and wonder what it was like [Pre-Chorus: Robin Pecknold] How do you bear the full weight? How does the long way feel? Kneading your hand too tight against the wheel? How do you stay in that tower? How do you reckon your own power? How does the wheel not turn hour on hour on hour? [Chorus: Justin Vernon & Anaïs Mitchell] I was trying to find my way I was thinking my mind was made But you were making my heart change shape It's all that I could take I was trying to find my way I was thinking my mind was made But you were making my heart change shape It's all that I could take [Pre-Chorus: Robin Pecknold] How do you bear the full weight? How does the long way feel? Kneading your hand too tight against the wheel? How do you stay in that tower? How do you reckon your own power? How does the wheel not turn hour on hour on hour? [Chorus: Justin Vernon & Anaïs Mitchell] I was trying to find my way I was thinking my mind was made But you were making my heart change shape It's all that I could take I was trying to find my way I was thinking my mind was made But you were making my heart change shape It's all that I could take, now I was trying to find my way I was thinking my mind was made But you were making my heart change shape It's all that I could take, now I was trying to find my way I was thinking my mind was made But you were making my heart change shape It's all that I could take, now [Outro: Robin Pecknold, Justin Vernon] How do you stay in that tower? How does the long way feel? How does the wheel not turn hour on hour on hour? (Trying to find my way) (I was thinking my mind was made) (All that I, all that I could)
