When the point of the horizon is hiding its blues, what would you want sky?

Animal Collective - What Would I Want? Sky from Adam Tanner on Vimeo.

Good deeds. Sky! [What would I want? Sky!]
Is everything alright? You feeling moany? You feeling lonely?
You're not the only
Is everything alright? You feeling stormy? You feeling phoney?
You're not the only
Do you get up up up? Clouds stop and move above me
Too bad they can't help me. What is the right way?
Do I float up up up? When I stop and look around me
Grey is where the color should be
What is the right way?
Old glasses clinking and a
New order's blinking
and I -
I should be floating but I'm weighted by thinking
That I got on the river
Really can't make you change
And the sky gets filled up too fast and the taxi man's saying, "You betta give me some money; stop daydreaming, dude!" When the point of horizon is hiding from you. What would you want sky?

Are you taking it lightly? Lost in the flurries, You start to worry. You will be buried
Taking it lightly, and so I hurry. I start to worry. Here come them flurries
Is everything alright? You feeling lonely? You feeling moldy? You're not the only
Is everything alright? You feeling stormy? You feeling foamy? You're not the only
Do you get up up up? Clouds stop and move above me
Too bad they can't help me. What is the right way?
Do I float up up up? When I stop and look around me
Grey is where that color should be. What is the right way?
Old glasses clinking and a New order's blinking and I -
I should be floating but I'm weighted by thinking
I'm a fly on the river, That'll make me some change
When the sky gets filled up too fast and the taxi cab's waiting, "You betta give him some money; stop daydreaming, dude!"
When the point of horizon is hiding its blues
What would you want sky? What would I want? Sky!
