Moses Sumney – Neither Nor Lyrics
Neither/Nor By Moses Sumney When I was a little boy I’d scream at vague, misty nights Yet breathe out smoke with no fire I’d become one with what I was scared of I fell in love with the in-between Coloring in the margins Yet the romance of the undefined Was a threatening lie in their eyes They say Oh, who is he? Nobody. Hello, who is he? Nobody. I’m not at peace with dying alone But I am not at war either No, I am planted on the shore knowing The ashen tide may or may not rise Cuz in the valley of the sure You cannot be neither/nor You’re fated to pick a door Only the lonely are lukewarm They say Oh, who is he? Nobody Hello, who is he? Nobody Is it a ghost Is it a plane Is it a shiver Down your spine Is it delusion Is it confused Is it contusion of a hard-earned truth? No, it’s nobody Nobody Nobody Nobody
