"Sumac" lyrics - MAT KEARNEY

MAT KEARNEY
"Sumac"

Every night when I sleep
You keep knocking 'round my head and in my dreams
I can't find the air to breathe
Sitting, waiting on some reciprocity

[Pre-Chorus:]
But I don't mind
Mmm, it's alright, you can take your time
And tried and I tried and I tried, but I can't lie
Mmm, and it still feels like

[Chorus:]
Sumac, taste on my lips
Swinging your hair and balling your fists
I can't resist
It is what it is
I know you're introverted
These words that you live are all that exist
I take what you give
It is what it is

[Post-Chorus:]
Ooh
Ooh

It's like I'm flying through the trees
Swerving in and out of powdered evergreens
You know I say it like I mean
Waiting patient's not an easy thing to me

[Pre-Chorus:]
I got time
Mmm, it's alright, you can ease your mind
My, oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my
Mmm, and it still feels like flyin'

[Chorus:]
Sumac, taste on my lips
Swinging your hair and balling your fists
I can't resist
It is what it is
I know you're introverted, these words that you give
Are minimalists all
Right from your lips
I'll take what you give
It is what it is

[Outro:]
Ooh, you flip the switch
Ooh, I can't resist
Ooh, I'll take what you give
Ooh (Right from your lips) is what it is, is what it is
Ooh
