Reluctant Recluse Lyrics by We Cut Corners

The Cadences Of Others

0

People on my street, they know me by name
But they dare never speak of it
Consequently, I do exactly the same
Dumbed at the cheek of it
So I hide away in my room and reflect
And refract the moon's ivory glow
While companies of non-believers collect and shape torch and pitchfork down below
I was a reckless child
Now I'm a childless wreck
Back in my youth
I was the quintessential non-believer
Now I'm a reluctant recluse
And I still drag around this ridiculous guilt
Like a limp, and I'm not rid of it yet
Picked it up in basilicas built upon silt
How very Marie Antoinette
How very Marie Antoinette
I was a reckless child
Now I'm a childless wreck
Back in my youth
I was the quintessential non-believer
Now I'm a reluctant recluse
I'm all alone and I'm wondering
How do I go from being the one
Who is kept in the dark
To the one who is being kept in the know?
(vocalizing)
(If you follow me (?)
Repeat after me, (?))
(Waking me up, just like I...)
Was a reckless child
Now I'm a childless wreck
Back in my youth
I was the quintessential non-believer
Now I'm a reluctant recluse
I was the quintessential non-believer
Now I'm a reluctant recluse
