Cheetah and Gazelle Songtext
von Urthboy

I know when the winter was cold
Now I got the window way down
With the area in my soul
Something you can feel in the sound
I don′t wanna renovate me
But lately I've been coming around
My narrative is I escaped it
Nothing carried over from another moment
Puzzling emotions coming and they′re going
You don't know what I've been diagnosed with
Bringing out into the open, the therapist is quoting
But I′m out

And I beg your pardon, sit in my garden
Put on my headphones
Write a breeze that′ll blow in your heart
And bring you no harm
And find you in or out of
Wherever the margin is at


Wonder what it does to my judgement
And what it does to my health
I'm a have a little intervention with myself
What the hell
I′ve been trying not to get defensive
That's a younger version of me casting a spell
Some part of me will be cheetah, some gazelle

I′ve been running at a breakneck pace
Then slowed right down
I made my way in a ruthless town
I walked in the waves but I did not drown
The breath that saved me
I'm lost and found


Now and then I hear myself say
Some kind of familiar line
I inherited a gravestone
Weighing down my younger mind
Filling up a Studymate book
I′ve done it like a 100 times
I don't know the wire to cut
When the time ticks down
And the place might blow
What a way to go Leonard Cohen
Ain't no body armour on a poem
You could break it open Ed Snowden
The code that you crack got me on the back foot
But I beg your pardon
I am not a martyr I′m just sidetracked
Trying to write a breeze that′ll carry your heart
And bring you no harm
And find you in or out of
Wherever the margin is at

Wonder what it does to my judgement
And what it does to my health
I'm a have a little intervention with myself
What the hell
I′ve been trying not to get defensive
That's a younger version of me casting a spell
Some part of me will be cheetah, some gazelle

I′ve been running at a breakneck pace
Then slowed right down
I made my way in a ruthless town
I walked in the waves but I did not drown
The breath that saved me
I'm lost and found
