WHY? - One Mississippi Lyrics






To not focus on the
Limb that's missing
With the damn
Phantom thing itching
Is a difficult mission
But listen:

With much of the whole/hole intact
In this great anarchic expanse
It mostly comes down
To a gang of ants
Swarming on the shadow
Of a stain of a drop of blood

I know
I've got to submit to
Whatever it is in control

I know
Stop throwing shadow
On shadow and let it all go

I know
You say, "One Mississippi."

January February March
Since you've gone away

Constantly rising from
And falling into flame
My body knows more than
I can form with my brain

And with a roar from
The deepest core cave
Cut a coil of those
Old spoiled ways

I know
I've got to submit to
Whatever it is in control

I know
Stop throwing shadow
On shadow and let it all go

I know
It goes, "One Mississippi
One Mississippi. One Mississippi."

    Best concert I've ever been to. During the opening act, WHY? was in the crowd and I didn't even realize until they took the stage that the guy I bought my shirt from was Josiah. It almost feels criminal that these guys aren't more popular. And I feel like a Schlub that I almost like it better that way. Keep it up, guys!

    C.... M....

    They def deserve to be bigger. They're just ahead of their time

  16. Z.... ....

    Thank you forever

    I think your most recent album was one of your best yet. Keep up the good work. Much love from a fellow Cincinnatian.

    Best song, best band. Really brings back the experimental vibe from their past albums
