Feldspar - Cressida lyrics

rate me

I've paraded as a sacrifice to Cupid

I've dressed in virgin white from head to toe

I've marked the widow, dismissed a grief as stupid

Walk naked for my lovers through the snow

My sight is long and cynical

My boots have long been scared

So darling don’t, talk to me about love!

You can build your heaven empire on my body

You can conquer every region of my chest

Plan the flag to mark your promise land upon me

Take everything you want and leave the rest

Oh caught me in your armor

Till you think I'm strong enough

Darling don't talk to me about love!

These rooms, these empty rooms where the walls cave in

These corridors and trap doors are return

These veins, these arteries are paper thin

When the morning comes the topless towers will burn

I've seen butterflies escape from dead man's bunkers

Run, screaming for the moon and the deal was made

I've had bad advice from graduates and I’m cold

Live only in the day the price was paid

So don't speak to me soldiers, city tongues will speak enough

And darling don't talk to me about love!

So don't speak to me soldiers, city tongues will speak enough

And darling don't talk to me about love!
