Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer
You came quivering across the floor A mass of folded skin and claws Gingerly let me take hold of you Such an awkward bag of bones 'Til you shot into your own With my callow heart in swift pursuit Oh, how the years they twist and bend your bones Tender soul, yet beast of war No surrender, tooth and claw Goddess in a boy's mythology But mortality's a fear Neither warrior nor seer May banish to shadows eternally Savage compassion, lethal chemistry Hold my eyes girl Quietly drifting from reality Leaving this shell From bright bustling ball of flame To a shuffling stiff-legged lame Muscles failing in response to cues 'Til you could no longer stand Without a pair of helping hands Lending legs to your hypotenuse Savage compassion, lethal chemistry Hold my eyes girl Quietly drifting from reality Leaving this shell Time marches jack-booted heels over mortal frames Muscles strain against the tide in vain Gravity, it comes to stake a claim Winching masses beneath the soil, flesh tamed All bodies are finite things Starting, ending pieces of string Prone to chafe and fray, threads come undone There's a line hard to define Between cruel and benign Soiled by soles treading that Rubicon Savage compassion, lethal chemistry Hold my eyes girl Quietly drifting from reality Leaving this shell Savage compassion, lethal chemistry Hold my eyes girl Quietly drifting from reality Leaving this shell
