What they call us

"What they call us" is a song by Fever Ray and re-recorded as a cover version by The Gliding Faces for their Eye to eye album project.

Lyrics

First I'd like to say that I'm sorry
I've done all the tricks that I can
Cinnamon bun in the oven
There's a fire in my hands

Did you see the light this morning?
Sometimes there's this extra air
Sometimes I can keep my mouth open
I would stay if I dare

Did you hear what they call us?
Did you hear what they said?
My plan was flexible
Don't get stuck anywhere

Can I just hold you for a minute?
Some things just ain't easy to repair
The person who came here was broken
Can you fix it, can you dare?

Did you hear what they call us?
(They call us, they call us)
Did you hear what they said?
I've got plan that's flexible
(It's flexible, it's flexible)
Just don't stop anywhere

It's a common misconception
This is not a band
Ready for a dissection
Now Mummy's gotta work, see the land

Did you hear what they call us?
(They call us, they call us)
Did you hear what they said?
I've got plan that's flexible
(It's flexible, it's flexible)
Just don't stop anywhere
