Beach House – Myth Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Drifting in and out
See the road you’re on
You came rolling down the cheek
You say just what you need
And in between
It’s never as it seems
[Chorus]
Help me to make it
Help me to make it
[Verse 2]
If you built yourself a myth
You'd know just what to give
What comes after this
Momentary bliss
The consequence
Of what you do to me
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
Found yourself in a new direction
Arrows far from the sun
Can you come?
Would they come to breach you?
Let you know you’re not the only one
You can’t keep hangin' on
To all that’s dead and gone
If you built yourself a myth
You'd know just what to give
Do you lie?
Oh, let the ashes fly
[Chorus]
Drifting in and out
See the road you’re on
You came rolling down the cheek
You say just what you need
And in between
It’s never as it seems
[Chorus]
Help me to make it
Help me to make it
[Verse 2]
If you built yourself a myth
You'd know just what to give
What comes after this
Momentary bliss
The consequence
Of what you do to me
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
Found yourself in a new direction
Arrows far from the sun
Can you come?
Would they come to breach you?
Let you know you’re not the only one
You can’t keep hangin' on
To all that’s dead and gone
If you built yourself a myth
You'd know just what to give
Do you lie?
Oh, let the ashes fly
[Chorus]
About Myth
Nothing happens to shatter the perfect surface, The Guardian said in a review of Beach House’s fourth album, Bloom. It wasn’t meant as a compliment. But that bright, mirror-like surface is what makes Myth one of the Baltimore dream-pop band’s most powerful songs to date and places it among the purest versions of the enveloping sound they’ve refined for almost a decade.
