Dirty Projectors Lyrics for Song: Swing Lo Magellan
 Lyrics for Album: Swing Lo Magellan [2012]
 
 
 
 26428>Last night all my attention
 
 Squinting westward at the sunset
 
 With a map and a compass
 
 When a man reached up said something
 
 
 
 There
 
 Against the sky
 
 A point of light
 
 Too
 
 Invisible
 
 To give itself
 
 To the naked eye
 
 
 
 On the shore people yellin'
 
 In their eyes a great reflection
 
 In the grid oh where their position
 
 Unconcerned with intuition
 
 
 
 There
 
 Could never be
 
 No sympathy
 
 From
 
 That wilderness
 
 So let it be
 
 Arrested
 
 
 
 Swing low oh magellan
 
 Nine by six or eight by seven
 
 Post a sentinel at the border
 
 Of what what you attend
 
 What you ignore
 
 
 
 I saw my friend
 
 In a pool of light
 
 Oh drown
 
 In doubt and shame
 
 But I knew that I
 
 Had lost my sight
 
 26428>
