Twin Shadow - Tyrant Destroyed Lyrics




I know you spent some time
From the town to the city
Looking for a life to start
And when you were fifteen
I know what you said
"I'd never let another black boy break my heart"

You waited a decade
For me to come find you
There's never been a chance so rare
I was just stumbling out of
A prosthetic love
And never been someone so real

This was love
And I was such a tyrant destroyer
As you sat sinking in my hands
Love, and I was such a tyrant destroyer
As you sat sinking in my hands

As if it wasn't enough just to hear you speak
They had to give you lips like that
Like all of your sadness reduced to a color
Then painted upon
How could I forget you
And who was I to think that on a Saturday night
That you would really bike home alone
And the way that I left you
Just hanging on Sundays
And fair skin boy take you home

This was love
And I was such a tyrant destroyer
As you sat sinking in my hands
Love, and I was such a tyrant destroyer
As you sat sinking in my hands...
