"Damocles" lyrics

"Damocles"

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

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
