Clockwork Doll
“Death is one search away.”
St Angelus shoulder blade
Chances are you remember me too?
We were young and a little bold
Across the mountains across the seas
A little bit of you in me
What was the song on the radio
Acoustic edit shortlisted remix
Where were you now it's happening
Better to wait for the bleed through
I wish I could read it clearly now
You used to be the better part of getting used to it
I wasted you on the kitchen floor
Now it's dusk and broken mirrors
Like a spectrum on the dance floor
Like a fucking spectrum on the dance floor
How many times is a good time
How many lives is a good life
Frosted candied emptied fulfilled
Never fully awake from sunrise to sunset
Never fully asleep from broken to reset
Like a feather floating offshore
Toasted by the seasoned sun
Piace swallow piace dawn
I lost you when I lost myself
I gained you when I regained some one else
Clutch the clockies
It's made of quartz
Add some rose in it
Call it Chardonnay
Call it "not mine".
