new academics - rubicon lyrics
you came quivering across the floor
a m-ss of folded skin and claws
gingerly let me take hold of you
such an awkward bag of bones
‘til you shot into your own
with my callow heart in swift pursuit
oh, how the years they twist and bend your bones
tender soul, yet beast of war
no surrender, tooth and claw
goddess in a boy’s mythology
but mortality’s a fear
neither warrior nor seer
may banish to shadows eternally
savage comp-ssion, lethal chemistry
hold my eyes girl
quietly drifting from reality
leaving this sh-ll
from bright bustling ball of flame
to a shuffling stiff-legged lame
muscles failing in response to cues
‘til you could no longer stand
without a pair of helping hands
lending legs to your hypotenuse
savage comp-ssion, lethal chemistry
hold my eyes girl
quietly drifting from reality
leaving this sh-ll
time marches jack-booted heels over mortal frames
muscles strain against the tide in vain
gravity, it comes to stake a claim
winching m-sses beneath the soil, flesh tamed
all bodies are finite things
starting, ending pieces of string
pr-ne to chafe and fray, threads come undone
there’s a line hard to define
between cruel and benign
soiled by soles treading that rubicon
savage comp-ssion, lethal chemistry
hold my eyes girl
quietly drifting from reality
leaving this sh-ll
savage comp-ssion, lethal chemistry
hold my eyes girl
quietly drifting from reality
leaving this sh-ll
