Myth Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Drifting in and out, you see the road you're on
It came rollin' down your cheek, you say just what you mean
And in-between, it's never as it seems
[Chorus]
Help me to name it
Help me to name 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]
Help me to name it
Help me to name it
[Bridge]
Found yourself in a new direction
Arrows fallin' from the sun
Canyon callin', would they come to greet you?
Let you know you're not the only one
[Verse 3]
Can't keep hangin' on to what is dead and gone
If you built yourself a myth, you'd know just what to give
Materialize or let the ashes fly
Drifting in and out, you see the road you're on
It came rollin' down your cheek, you say just what you mean
And in-between, it's never as it seems
[Chorus]
Help me to name it
Help me to name 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]
Help me to name it
Help me to name it
[Bridge]
Found yourself in a new direction
Arrows fallin' from the sun
Canyon callin', would they come to greet you?
Let you know you're not the only one
[Verse 3]
Can't keep hangin' on to what is dead and gone
If you built yourself a myth, you'd know just what to give
Materialize or let the ashes fly
About
Genius Annotation
“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.
