Bright Eyes - A Poetic Retelling Of An Unfortunate Seduction Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • The language in the dimmer rooms
  • Seems to represent the light source well
  • How soft they speak and seem to be at peace
  • With the movement of the music and the madness
  • That is pulling me into this
  • And the shades of the lamps are woven red
  • The light, it stains and consecrates
  • Anointing all forgotten forms
  • That swirl and smoke and haunt this place
  • The girls in gowns all nurse the dark
  • Pulling it near to their swelling breasts
  • And watch as it seeps to their hearts
  • And beats within their virgin chests
  • And here I know seduction breeds
  • From wanton hearts that would seduce
  • And grows and spreads its vine and leaves
  • Embracing those who might have moved
  • But now remain to drink the night
  • From vials black and thick with steam
  • Such intoxicating delights
  • That leave you drunk inside this dream
  • And you watch them take the light from you
  • And you find yourself
  • On a velvet couch
  • Tasting the skin of a foreign girl
  • Her eyes are black
  • And wet like oil
  • And she ties your hands with a string of pearls
  • And you tremble like a frightened bird
  • As she closes in and captures you
  • To place you in the silver cage
  • Deep within her poisoned womb
  • And once you're safe inside
  • She might let you out to fly
  • In the circles around the room
  • But it's always night
  • And there is no moon
  • And you wonder if you are alive
  • And you’re not sure if you want to be
  • But you drank her sweat like it was wine
  • And you lay with her on a bed of blue
  • And it's awful sweet
  • Like the fruit she cuts and feeds to you
