Of Modern Architecture - Savages Lyrics

No words are exchanged
A shadow and its cursed embrace
The way it moves and pushes into you
Hands clench and eyes close
The way its lips caress your neck and its arms pull you close
A dance of candlelight on the walls
A constant flicker of movement
Silhouette of the beast, so alluring, we lose ourselves and it all falls apart
Shapes that haunt my dreams

"This continues for many minutes, but seems slowed and drawn to hours in my head"

Then, sharp breaths, inhale
With words doused in liquor you claim that this is love
Your intimacy has spoiled, like rot in the sun
A sudden thrust
A crying out, followed by cold silence
The night's a blur and sweat stings the eyes; so hard to us for what we are... savages
I f*cking hate myself
Now aware of stained sheets and cast off clothes, scattered about the room
Moonlight lends shape to the now motionless pair of bodies
So close, but so alone
Why now? No words are exchanged

"How pathetic, wretched and false"
