๐ Lyrics
Reading left to right, waiting for the fight scene
(I think that I'm just what I need)
I headed for a vice, two lovers and a knife without a tree
(Seemingly so)
Sweet, you need
To take some time away
To take some time away
Shake without a sound
Our feet are safer on the ground
You keep your wits about you
When I'm around
Shake without a sound
Our feet are safer on the ground
Past the point of poetry now
Gilding the lily
It's hard for you to wear this kind of shame
(I think that I'm just what I need)
And to boot, in such an ugly shade
(Seemingly so)
Sweet, you need
To take some time away
To take some time away
Shake without a sound
Our feet are safer on the ground
You keep your wits about you
When I'm around
Shake without a sound
Our feet are safer on the ground
Past the point of poetry now
Gilding the lily
A violet needs perfume
Like a crown of gold needs more jewels
But we need time
(We need time)
Shake without a sound
Your feet are safer on the ground
You keep your wits about you
When I'm around
Take some time away
You say you wouldn't like it any more
Than if I'd stick around to gild the lily
(I think that I'm just what I need)
I headed for a vice, two lovers and a knife without a tree
(Seemingly so)
Sweet, you need
To take some time away
To take some time away
Shake without a sound
Our feet are safer on the ground
You keep your wits about you
When I'm around
Shake without a sound
Our feet are safer on the ground
Past the point of poetry now
Gilding the lily
It's hard for you to wear this kind of shame
(I think that I'm just what I need)
And to boot, in such an ugly shade
(Seemingly so)
Sweet, you need
To take some time away
To take some time away
Shake without a sound
Our feet are safer on the ground
You keep your wits about you
When I'm around
Shake without a sound
Our feet are safer on the ground
Past the point of poetry now
Gilding the lily
A violet needs perfume
Like a crown of gold needs more jewels
But we need time
(We need time)
Shake without a sound
Your feet are safer on the ground
You keep your wits about you
When I'm around
Take some time away
You say you wouldn't like it any more
Than if I'd stick around to gild the lily
