I would never take upon myself
To put you back from pieces
I would only complicate things
And I would not know the way
I would never break you
I see the crack in it
I would never break you
I see the crack in it

With Steady Clout

I am the dark light
And I am walking these halls again
And I am fraught with the hourglass
And I…
And I am standing beside
But how long can I keep living within limits
Hemmed in by the rigors of halting, without
Another day with steady clout
Animal reasons come get you
Pillars are falling to the ground
Not all of us moving together
Am I the one who dulls your shine
Skin that outstretches its welcome
Am I confined, some kind of child
To stand in your shadow forever
Places we take with steady clout
Famished for creature and comfort
Fever is coursing through my veins
Maybe we belong here together
Is this the way it has to be
Is there a choice in the matter
I'd rather die with steady clout
Than live, the only way to be living
The only way to be, with steady clout

Top Shelf Variety

Sweet amends
The riddle, the heart of men
It's tearing us open, a new globe
Into fixture
The brittlest bones to mend
Wreak havoc above them
A duel, help or hinder
I must be moving on
I must be right
Luminary eyes speak volumes
See the turning of worlds to spurn
Will haul this cage, clear of harm
And hold myself in your arms
I may be wrong
Luminary eyes
Speak louder than words
Desert my sole survivor
It's drivel
It's selfsame, vigil
It's every single day
And every single night
It's selfsame, scapegrace
It's drivel
Eras bygone and on
The interval decline
This time, in denial
You lie here with me
Under a spell so deep
I may be wrong
And what's the use
You're in the nude
A figment of fantasy
To receive the signal
Keep coming in crippled
Plant your feet here with me
This is the top shelf variety

Coax and Cozen

Ripe for hire
Loot, legend
Brighter skies, auspices
My chief concern is only you
I adorn you with deepest crimson
See my vixen eyes
This is a chronicle of deep conviction
You will see my angel eyes
Whisked away, fraud
Always your champion
My modern marvels of no use
In love, a soothsayer
In lust, as a safeguard
Vintage, born scavenger
And now, it's taken root there
And now, it's taken root there
In love again
I adorn you with deepest crimson
See my angel eyes
Ushering in your aura
Your scope is broad
And your motives pure
I'm ravished by the lore
I'm ready to make you mine
To coax and cozen
To paint this portrait
To make you mine
