Minus Something - Swans

There’s been a lot of upsetting…

Very upsetting things

That I can’t allow to happen any more

I have to be like a soldier and march away

Cause I’m very delicate in a lot of ways

And things get to me

And affect me in a very adverse… manner

I don’t need that

Don’t need that

I feel now like minus something, you know

I feel faded;

I don’t feel like I’m all here

I think it’ll come back;

I hope it’ll come back

There’s a lot of color missing, from the way I feel

And from … my face, and, you know, just everything

There’s some kind of zest, or some kind of, um … life

You know, that seems to be faded temporarily

Because I’ve been so drained, emotionally

By a number of things

That has to slowly build back up

And then it has to be kept sustained

It cannot be allowed to be diminished
