Allure

lyrics

Folded brain
On gilded tongues
Memory
Forbidden one

Honestly
It comes around
A thing alive
With rhythmic sound

What’s it mean,
When our sirens sing,
Unknotting the bit of string?
Soft denials
When our throats are wrecked
Don’t look back, a lure’s ahead

Losing sight
A feeling glows
It reels you in
And won’t let go

A jagged edge
Of chipped-tooth tone
The chamber choir
To steal you home

If I don’t lay down
I can’t wake up
If I don’t let go
I can’t get down

If I can’t get down
I won’t wake up
If I don’t let go
I won’t lay down

If I couldn’t know then
What I wouldn’t know now
Am I supposed to know?

What I didn’t know then
What I couldn’t know now
What am I supposed to know?
