Devil's Blue Eyes
Let us stop our pretending, our blaming and lie
asleep here together our limbs intertwined
because you said it all with those blue eyes
You seem to know of wise things--
Marxist prose and karmic law,
Akashic records and fine grain alcohol,
but you said it all with those blue eyes
Your thirty years of glory without an ounce of shame,
but you know who burdens such blame...
You walk like a giant but your footprint is small
Abstention, circumvention, resisting us all
with the grace of the devil's black swan
I feel lapse for your guidance so feather-light and free
Your swagger cut like daggers,
brought on Cain's apostasy
with the grace of the devil's black swan.
These musings creep into my dreams
We're tied up and sewn at the seams
I'm sick to death of you or are you sick to death of me?
You who I discarded, my carnal mysteries
Restless am I for your meat
If in nature lies the answers then in my gaze lies the law
Digging graves even deeper with my back against the wall
and your eyes so indiscreet
My body desired what my mind disdained,
pounding, pounding like rain
Let's close all these shutters,
have a smoke to fall asleep
Dream of lovers kept secrets in red satin sheets
I'm bound to feed what you need.
Let's gather two of every trauma,
build an ark and part the sea,
then bury this ship in temptations mystery
You are bound no more to my greed
The end of a journey the end of a dream
But the temptress is not what she seems...
Fawning for forgiveness so desperate to be free
Our apparent estrangement while you were asleep
The devil's blue eyes in the mirror
asleep here together our limbs intertwined
because you said it all with those blue eyes
You seem to know of wise things--
Marxist prose and karmic law,
Akashic records and fine grain alcohol,
but you said it all with those blue eyes
Your thirty years of glory without an ounce of shame,
but you know who burdens such blame...
You walk like a giant but your footprint is small
Abstention, circumvention, resisting us all
with the grace of the devil's black swan
I feel lapse for your guidance so feather-light and free
Your swagger cut like daggers,
brought on Cain's apostasy
with the grace of the devil's black swan.
These musings creep into my dreams
We're tied up and sewn at the seams
I'm sick to death of you or are you sick to death of me?
You who I discarded, my carnal mysteries
Restless am I for your meat
If in nature lies the answers then in my gaze lies the law
Digging graves even deeper with my back against the wall
and your eyes so indiscreet
My body desired what my mind disdained,
pounding, pounding like rain
Let's close all these shutters,
have a smoke to fall asleep
Dream of lovers kept secrets in red satin sheets
I'm bound to feed what you need.
Let's gather two of every trauma,
build an ark and part the sea,
then bury this ship in temptations mystery
You are bound no more to my greed
The end of a journey the end of a dream
But the temptress is not what she seems...
Fawning for forgiveness so desperate to be free
Our apparent estrangement while you were asleep
The devil's blue eyes in the mirror
