Chiaroscuro Lyrics by INQUIRY

Ghost Poet

0

If we're 10 to 2, then how did we become so blind
Always creating an issue with nothing left to lose
Dancing around each letter to a word
Carving our names in a spineless accord
While we sleep, wide awake, when we can't stand ourselves
All of our decency fleeting from the world

I bite my tongue whether I'm right or wrong
We're melting our words
Decorative and cordial advances have become a commodity

Are we listening or simply hearing each other out

Let's not hang on the edge where we shouldn't be
Feeling everything and nothing, but it's always something

Comatose, smitten with a flick of a wrist
We've become careful and wise
Sweet talking skeletons, let's do what we do best

Hesitating, overthinking, complicating
Everything we don't understand
You keep believing what's done is done
But it doesn't have to be this way

Flesh and bone fighting for the last damn word
Well, what is it worth

Let's not hang on the edge where we shouldn't be
Feeling everything and nothing, but it's always something
Comatose, smitten with a flick of a wrist
We've become careful and wise
Sweet talking skeletons, let's do what we do best

Cloak, dagger, and stagger nothing will materialize
This can't be absolute
Loose compositions, no resolution
We're just talking material
