"inventor" lyrics

"inventor"

Here is no need here
Leaving our treasures at your door
Was it not beau ideal
Was it not everything
How to proceed here
Who's been crying wolf on our shores
Walking aimlessly
Never to mislead

And I want to grow tall
Giving me a clearer, grander view
Of what's boiling here
And feel the smell draw near
Tasting the bitter
Swallow though it burns down my throat
Let it circulate
Let it fill my veins

Inside there's gold
Mouth open eyes closed
Teeth paved with gold
Come in get close
Oh I have you now

And I want to grow tall
Giving me a clearer, grander view
Of what's boiling here
And feel the smell draw near
Tasting the bitter
Swallow though it burns down my throat
Let it circulate
Let it fill my veins

Inside there's gold
Mouth open eyes closed
Teeth paved with gold
Come in get close
Oh I have you now

It takes patience to understand
It takes skills
And slight of hand
Discovery of ones self
It takes equal measurements
Of you and I as we blend
Invention of itself
