Fishtalk - Golden Mean
00
Copied!
On the edge of the bed
On the verge of a breakdown
My eyes rummage in the void
Just find some placid ghosts
They say
Sometimes she's a queen
Ideal shape perfect features
Sometimes heaven's miserly
And she looks like a dead foetus
The sun beats down
Inside, an icy nothing
I see nothing
I let down my guard and it comes back in flashes
I resist
But it persists
Slowly, slowly
Recеde slowly
Slowly, slowly
Recedе slowly
I'd better better hide
I've lost the golden mean
A leopard and a lamb
Living under the same skin
I'd better better hide
Until my shame mummifies
Captive and haunted
I've lost the golden mean
The sun beats down
Inside, an icy nothing
I see nothing
I let down my guard and it comes back in flashes
I resist
But it persists
On the verge of a breakdown
My eyes rummage in the void
Just find some placid ghosts
They say
Sometimes she's a queen
Ideal shape perfect features
Sometimes heaven's miserly
And she looks like a dead foetus
The sun beats down
Inside, an icy nothing
I see nothing
I let down my guard and it comes back in flashes
I resist
But it persists
Slowly, slowly
Recеde slowly
Slowly, slowly
Recedе slowly
I'd better better hide
I've lost the golden mean
A leopard and a lamb
Living under the same skin
I'd better better hide
Until my shame mummifies
Captive and haunted
I've lost the golden mean
The sun beats down
Inside, an icy nothing
I see nothing
I let down my guard and it comes back in flashes
I resist
But it persists
