Sweet Serene

Bob Mould · Other Songs - Bob Mould

I needed the rain to wash away indifference

I needed the wind to air out the differences

I needed the sun to warm up my spirits

If I need these elements to feel somewhat centered



I wanted some time we wanted without the impositions

I wanted a life beyond the Spanish inquisition

I wanted so little, but it seems I need so much

Too much to ask for, but I want what I deserve

And I need these elements to feel somewhat centered



And when I walk, I don't care where I'm going

All I know is the movement does me good

Gravitation, pulleys, puppet strings

Paper, scissors, rock me back to sweet serene



Rock me back to sweet serene



I could have stayed inside for another year

I could have died if I hadn't disappeared now

Too much to ask for, but I want what I deserve

And I need these elements to feel somewhat centered
