Lyrics

Damocles

[Intro]

Crossed 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

[Verse 1]

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

[Pre-Chorus]

All my senses bending stroke-like

[Chorus]

You draw it out

Out the need

Hanging from a Damocles

Gash is torn

Torn away

Separated from its shadow

[Verse 2]

I don't anticipate where you are going

What I hope is you care to let me follow

[Pre-Chorus]

This is not my first delusion

If you told me some untruth

[Chorus]

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

[Outro]

To be held or hold you now

Dawn threatens eyes adjusting

I turn toward the wall

I dreamt we were walking home
