lyrics

Soaking in oak
Parading internally
Like an adult
You see what I mean?
The light hangs so cautiously
I'm leaning forever but the taste won't come back to me
Leaning forever but the taste won't come back to me
Leaning forever but the taste won't come back to me
Leaning to listen but it never comes back

Argue with me and receive it
Receive
The ankle of glory
Is chained to its enemy
So wish me away at the thin veil of morning
It's lifting forever but the taste won't come back to me
Lifting forever but the taste won't come back to me
Lifting forever but the taste won't come back to me
Lifting to vision but it never comes back to me
Lifting a vision that never comes back

Possible, possible
Make me an offer
And watch me refuse it
Just to refuse it
This may confuse
So I lead with a warning
You have my heart beating,
My heartbeat performing

Wager your bones
On a fast hand of decency
This may confound
But you will understand
And we will speak again
When you are an old gentleman
Wilting, disheveled, too late to turn back
Wilting, disheveled, too late to come back
Wilting forever but you never come back to me

Soaking in oak
And fading eternally
As an adult
You see what I mean?
The light hangs so differently
I'm leaning forever but the taste won't come back to me
Leaning forever but the taste won't come back to me
Leaning forever but the taste won't come back to me
Lifting forever but the taste won't come back to me
Lifting forever but it never comes back
