Dispossessed Lyrics by Unwoman

Knowledge Scars

0

Half a world away I waited, silent
You'd kept me hanging on while I knew I needed distance
You finally threw me down, no promise anymore
Our words of love, delusions fell apart, copulating on the floor
And summer came and destroyed any other words
Now I can never call that lust by any other name
And you could tell those lies only while spring's blossoms grew
So I left my door open wide for something new
Now I fly through summer's air solely dispossessed
I feel the wind between my legs whеre once your hand caressеd
How could I have been so blind to your fallacies?
Now thanks to slowly severed bonds I've risen to my knees and summer --
Summer came, days grew long (And summer came and destroyed any other words)
Everything you told me was wrong (Now I can never call that lust by any other name)
For you knew all along what you'd do to me (And you could tell those lies only while spring's blossoms grew)
And in the spring you said those words
You said them, how you cried them (So I left my door open wide for something new)
You said those words -- FOREVER -- you said them but you lied them
How can I stand at the crossroads without doubt?
How can I move forward, trusting now, without desire?
How will autumn fall between, inside our jaded hearts?
How can I touch without igniting fatal fire?
And she said "Stop looking to the heavens for omens, for love:
The answer lies within and it's always 'NO'
No more lies, no more hope"
(Summer burnt our reason)
But you were so, so full of promise
Or was that just PROMISCUITY?
And summer fades
