nation of language – sacred tongue lyrics
i walk, nine o’clock
as you stroll on the quay d’orsay
stretched out on the bench
make me wait at the garden gate
but as i watch you recline
serpent, siren and saint congregate inside
and i look back on another time, colorblind
colored by the weight of a sacred tongue
but if our shirts don’t fit and the jeans are ripped
that’s fine, that’s alright
and when our conscience clears i can murmur something trite
laying by your side
light shifts, the curtain lifts
you perform to great acclaim
i rescind the invitation or orchestrate my shame
never had a name for myself
all that in due time
before you carve my heart out know
i’m gonna let you every time
i will let you every time
i was always waiting for you to go
‘cause you never cared for me
you feign towards the door and i’m down on my hands and knees
but as i watch you recline
serpent, siren and saint congregate inside
and i look back on another time, colorblind
colored by the weight of a sacred tongue
but if our shirts don’t fit and the jeans are ripped
that’s fine, that’s alright
and when our conscience clears i can murmur something trite
laying by your side
