My Sword is Too Big

+ Show full styles

[Intro] Yeah... They said it was too big. I said... That's the point. [Verse 1] Everybody laughs when I walk through the door Says "Do you really need that thing anymore?" It's taller than me, weighs more than it should But I swing it around like nobody could The blacksmith sighed when I came back again "Anya, please... not another one of these?" But every blade has a story to tell And every scar means I know it well [Pre-Chorus] They say I'm compensating I say they're just jealous [Chorus] My sword is too big! But I like it that way It's carried me through every battle I've faced My sword is too big! Yeah, I know it's absurd But nobody remembers The guy with the tiny sword Oh-oh-oh! Let them laugh if they want Let them say what they will When the darkness comes knocking... I'll be standing still [Verse 2] I've got one from a ruin, one from a king One that hums when I make it sing My favorite that's on fire keeping me from the cold One that I probably should have definitely sold The party keeps asking "how many do you need?" I say "that's a very rude thing to ask me" A hero needs options, that's common sense Especially when monsters are jumping the fence [Break] The instructor said... "Anya, that weapon is completely impractical." So I took a feat. like? duh. [Chorus] My sword is too big! But I like it that way It's carried me through every battle I've faced My sword is too big! Yeah, I know it's absurd But nobody remembers The guy with the tiny sword Oh-oh-oh! Let them laugh if they want Let them say what they will When the darkness comes knocking... I'll be standing still [Bridge] It's not just a weapon... It's every road I've walked. Every friend I've saved... Every fight I've fought. Maybe it's heavy... Maybe it's hard... But I wouldn't trade it... For anything at all. [Final Chorus] My sword is too big! And I'll carry it proud I'll raise it above every monster and every crowd My sword is too big! Yeah, maybe that's true But if I'm going down fighting... I'm bringing it too! Oh-oh-oh! My sword is too big! [Outro] Yeah... I probably need another one.. or two... or five.
