Volatile Lyrics by Victor Primavesi

Idylls

2020

[Verse 1]
Years on I still wonder about the things that could have been
About the city and its shrunken borders and how they seem to me. Maybe it’s that I’ve just grown taller
With birds circling my head
But I fail to see the meaning in what it meant to me
[Pre-Chorus]
For the gentlest of pallors now graces your face
While I’m left wondering about what is left to do or say
When the same heart breaks anew
[Chorus]
Ancestral voices calling for me, calling for a foreign name
Still quarter past the moment you left your place behind
Has orange gotten greyer or is it me whose eyes forgot to see?
Oh, the weight of words left unsaid and thoughts left unthought
[Verse 2]
Your hand no longer rests in mine
I wonder if it ever did
Your mouth got silenced before it spoke or maybe before mine did
In flies a regret of great proportions imbued with elegiac key
Your kind was one of such ease which rests alongside you
[Pre-Chorus]
For the gentlest of pallors now graces your face
While I’m left wondering about what is left to do or say
When the same heart breaks anew
[Chorus]
Ancestral voices calling for me, calling for a foreign name
Still quarter past the moment you left your place behind
Has orange gotten greyer or is it me whose eyes forgot to see?
Oh, the weight of words left unsaid and thoughts left unthought
[Bridge 1]
Four corners – I fold a new heart into shape
This time I don’t mind the creases
Put my hope in that the folding releases a flawed machine that sought escape –
I fold my paper heart until it breaks
[Bridge 2]
Wishing for tears that won’t come leaves marks across my face
Still I’m filling pages, holding on…
Looking for something to say
[Outro]
Took a million faults to fold a new heart into shape
