A Poetic Retelling Of An Unfortunate Seduction-Bright Eyes

[ti:A Poetic Retelling Of An Unfor] [ar:Bright Eyes] [al:Letting Off The Happiness] [by:] [offset:0] [00:01.14]The language in the dimmer rooms [00:06.73]Seems to represent the light source well [00:13.28]How soft they speak and seem to be at peace [00:22.18]With the movement of the music and the madness [00:27.21]That is pulling me into this [00:36.43]And the shades of the lamps are woven red [00:45.14]The light it stains and consecrates [00:48.27]Anointing all forgotten forms [00:51.62]That swirl and smoke and haunt this place [00:55.31]The girls in gowns all nurse the dark [00:58.21]Pulling it near to their swelling breasts [01:01.28]And watch as it seeps to their hearts [01:04.28]And beats within their virgin chests [01:07.29]And here I know seduction breeds [01:10.47]From wanton hearts that would seduce [01:13.78]And grows and spreads its vine and leaves [01:17.06]Embracing those who might have moved [01:19.98]But now remain to drink the night [01:22.92]From vials black and thick with steam [01:26.32]Such intoxicating delights [01:29.65]That leave you drunk inside this dream [01:32.56]And you watch them take the light from you [01:41.82]And you find yourself [01:46.42]On a velvet couch [01:49.78]Tasting the skin of a foreign girl [01:55.14]Her eyes are black [01:59.11]And wet like oil [02:03.15]And she ties your hands with a string of pearls [02:09.05]And you tremble like a frightened bird [02:14.10]As she closes in and captures you [02:17.21]To place you in the silver cage [02:20.56]Deep within her poisoned womb [02:24.82]And once you're safe inside [02:28.61]She might let you out to fly [02:35.21]In the circles around the room [02:42.45]But it's always night [02:46.09]And there is no moon [02:50.03]And you wonder if you are alive [02:54.57]And you’re not sure if you want to be [02:59.64]But you drank her sweat like it was wine [03:04.61]And you lay with her on a bed of blue [03:11.44]And it's awful sweet [03:14.81]Like the fruit she cuts and feeds to you to you to you to you
