Testi

There is something pulling me into the deep unknown
To the wild though winter's coming and the autumn winds blow cold
The stars have said while smirking "this bed is not your home"
So out into the chaos and the crowds that I'm afraid of, I go
I hope I don't break down this time when I open the door
Another day as wary prey curled up on the floor
Hunters pacing 'round my burrow, sticking in their claws
But oh, I realize, when we laugh at their lies
We're alive, we have survived
So sing, and dance, and rip the shame from your eyes
Grip your mug and my hip tight, hair a mess and coffee spiked
And with those horns, that crooked crown
You look divine
Fellow creature, pinky swear
When they come we run like hell
Into the wilderness, I'll meet you there
I will sing the harmony
When you come to waltz with me
To melodies of all that you can't be
And when for a time our paths diverge
Bare your teeth and let me know it's you
And if I should not hear your hum behind the guitar and it's steel string strum
Dare me to bear witness to your truth
Now as I run I'm laughing 'cos the whole thing's quite absurd
It took so long for me to see what's growing from the dirt
Where we buried what we carried as we dance upon its grave
Like flowers sprung of earth and sun, here's our rightful place
Darling, I'm not here to fix you
Nor I do not want saving
I may fear the whole world
Growing migraines from the stress
But I do not fear the creatures in your heart
Then we reach the fields and past the hills we glimpse the sea
We'll stop for a snack break and a nap under an apple tree
The ones that hunt us may catch up, but not before the winter
So take a bite and taste the skin of sweet and sweaty sin
And as my eyes roll back I think I could die on those hills
With a peel stuck in my teeth
Be more, be less, fuck that, there's nothing wrong with us
Even when existing in the streets, central stations
Bars, buses, grocery stores
Becomes too much
Even as the snow snuffs out your torch, my love, don't change
The iron of stars, the blood of ancient gods runs through your mortal veins
And I have no desire to illuminate your deep dark parts
I'll gladly stumble sightless through your bleeding broken heart
And if one day you spot me in the chaos, in those crowds
Bare your teeth and let me know it's you
And if I should not hear your hum behind the guitar and it's steel string strum
Dare me to bear witness to your truth
Pull off that hood and show me your horns
Twisted, cracked and seared, a work of art
Hang up your coat, prune your ruffled feathers
Take your broken wings and wrap them round my heart
And I'll take off my beanie, show you my antlers
Lost and grown anew, a work of art
I'll rip up my shirt, show you my scars
Clawed by the creatures in my heart
There is something pulling you into the deep unknown
It's in the stars lest your marbles grew wings and flew into the sun
Something in your veins it roars "darling, you are so much more
than someone who is too afraid to step out the front door"
There is something pulling me into the deep unknown
To the wild though winter's coming and the autumn winds blow cold
The stars have said while smirking "go on, find it on your own"
So out into the chaos and the crowds that I'm afraid of, I go
