Damocles

Lyrics for Damocles

Across the block, in your room And that's the way it looks when my eyes adjust Colorless, wind and speed Falling right through it when my eyes adjust Running Breathlessly Without arrival Face swarmed, flickering Underneath panic Moths drawn to a grin Cover me in kisses Moths drawn to a grin Suck the pieces from it All, my, senses Bending, stroke-like You draw it out Out the need Hanging from a Damocles Gash is torn Torn away Separated from its shadow I don't, anticipate where you are going What I, hope is you Care to let me follow? This is not my First delusion If you told me Some untruth You draw it out Out the need Hanging from a Damocles Gash is torn Torn away Separated from its shadow You draw it out Out the need Hanging from a Damocles Gash is torn Torn away Separated from its shadow To, be, held Or hold you, now Dawn threatens Eyes adjusting I turn, toward The wall I dreamt we were Walking home
