Heartless Bastards – Swamp Song lyrics

Oh ramblings and a nervous reaction
In certain situations and factions
I want to hold my ground
So I don't let them get me down
I'm tryin' not to open my mouth
'Cause only senseless words come out
I want to keep my cool
So I don't feel like a fool

Ooh I'd like to know ya'
But how can I approach ya'
My feet won't move an inch
'Cause my feet are frozen in
Ooh I'd like to know ya'
But how can I approach ya'
My feet won't move an inch
'Cause my feet are frozen

Oh shyness is a waste of time
A couple more drinks and then I'll feel right
I just gotta swallow my pride
And let things fall things fall naturally
Just be who I am

And I'm feelin' like my heads on backwards
I need to break from impersonal chatter
Same party, different day
It doesn't matter anyway
And I'm feelin' like my head's on backwards
I need to break from impersonal chatter
Same party, different day
It doesn't matter anyway

(Repeat 2nd & 3rd verses)

'Cause the beat beat beat is what I found
The beat beat beat is what I found
The beat beat beat is what I found
The beat beat beat is what I found

I got to stop self degradation
No, no that's not not what I need
It's givin' me an inflammation of my
My soul it needs to breathe
My my my, my soul it needs to breathe
I want to be different and I am indifferent
I want to be different and I am indifferent
I want to be different and I am indifferent
I want to be different and I am indifferent

Sometimes I feel like I'm livin' on Mars
I go the distance but it don't seem very far
And I'm sittin' here in the dark
My eyes are open but don't see no stars
In the sky
Emotional pollution is why
I get that feelin', my my
When all I want is to be
Confident and carefree

'Cause the beat beat beat is what I found
The beat beat beat is what I found
The beat beat beat is what I found
The beat beat beat is what I found
The beat beat beat is what I found
