A Charm / A Blade

Give me ten long limbs, I'll hold

Lazy rolling things of gold

Dress me down in a New York crowd

Lay me down and bawl me out

Tell me everything's been sold

Tell me everything, I'll go

Pressed apart, those skins still hold

This can't be what you want, hej

This can't be what you want

There's a charm, there's a blade

There's a lot in the way

There's a child, there's a grave

There's a lot in the way

There's a colt, there's a cane

There's a lot in the way

There's a heart, there's a chain

There's a lot in the way

Hej, cut my heart, but do it fast

We don't want that hurt to last

Take that violence from your brow

Shake it down and hold it out

Tell me anything's my home

Tell me anything, I'll go

Pressed apart those skins still hold

This can't be what you want

Hej, it can't be what you want

There's a charm, there's a blade

There's a lot in the way

There's a heart, there's a grave

There's a lot in the way

There's a colt, there's a cane

There's a lot in the way

There's a child, there's a chain

There's a lot in the way

There's a mark, there's a stain

There's a lot in the way

There's a phone, there's a flame

There's a lot in the way

There's a fawn, there's a fang

There's a child in the rain

There's a charm, there's a blade

There's a lot in the way
