Daylight binds

Something crawls in my fevered mind

Summer calls you

Across your brow winter falls

I’ve known this once

And it feels the same

Heard them laugh when you spoke my name

Call off the dogs

There’s no damage done

To taste defeat when it burns my tongue

Turn your face up to the sun

Lies upon lies upon lies

Lies upon lies upon lies upon lies

Courage fails

I hear you cry from beyond the pale

Summer calls you

Across your brow the winter falls

I heard it once and it feels the same

Heard them laugh when you spoke my name

Call off the dogs

There’s no damage done

To taste defeat when it burns my tongue

Turn your face up to the sun

I heard it once and it feels the same

Heard them laugh when you spoke my name

Call off the dogs

There’s no damage done

To taste defeat when it burns my tongue
