Orphic Elegy - Heartshake Lyrics




I saw you on the road between country and dust
Like any other time, you were well on your way
Strung between what you want, and what you must
You... you haven't changed

I think about your hair when you're gone
Because I can't think about your eyes
I think about your hair and the way it frames
Your goodbyes

So now I'm writing this song
And it's as useless as any other thing
But I am full of love, it hurts my chest
And I have to do something

I'm down on
The ground
When tremors quake
Your hand tremble
My heart shake

Head still ringing from where you came
Setting your sights well out of range
Thinking more of your heart than where you aim
You... you haven't changed

I wish I had known I wouldn't be safe
In the embrace of your arms
Your single, placid inch of water
Was all I needed to drown

When I could not raise the stakes
I could only raise the alarm
If we had nowhere to go but up
How did I keep finding my way further down

What the sight of you does to me
It's shameful to look at
You're leaving me with this dying fire
I ask you to think on that
Think on that
