Devendra Banhart — This Is The Way lyrics

Lyrics

This the soup
That i believe in This is the smoke
I’m always breathin'
This is the way
I share my breakfast
This is the way
I serve my sentence
I know i know
I should lay low
I should stand tall
This is the beard
I’m always growin'
I know they’re here
I see them floating
Her empress beards
They float so holy
Their beards are here
They gently hold me Well who knows who knows
Yeah i may come home
Yeah i may return
This is the way
I’m always leaving
This is the soft
Voice of the evening
This is the way
I hear my father
These are the flames
That drown the water
Well i knew i knew
I could stand tall
I could lay low
This is the sound
That swims inside me That circle sound
Is what surrounds me This is the land
That grows around me And these are the hands
That come in handy
Well we’ve known we’ve known
We’ve had a choice
We chose rejoice
