What If Lyrics

Sylvan Esso What If

[Verse 1]
What if end was begin?
Then would men be like mothers?
And the falling of others would be like
The first leaves of flowers

[Verse 2]
What if darkness was light?
Under cover of bright
We'd stalk our prey, they can't see in the day
It's too white

[Verse 3]
Oh, life dying out
And the oceans turn to clouds
Soggy birds raining down
From the sky
Having drowned

[Verse 4]
Oh, it's not what you think
It's a memory bank
And it's living in our mouths
So, open wide
She's coming out
