The Shattering

from Unraveled by Paco Is Desperate!

lyrics

Tried to take it back
Will is a funny thing
I can't handle my liquid
Or powdered dreams
Perpetual autumn inside of me
A loss of words I swore to keep

Temptation is poetry
Sweet on the ears, deadly to the knees
It's calling, it's screaming
Half asleep with the water pouring
I'm falling, we're spinning, we're dancing
My favorite game is one I can't beat

I am pottery, piece by piece
I have come unglued, the shattering

I'm falling, we're spinning, we're dancing
Softly, a solvent dissolving
I'm falling, I'm spinning, I'm awkward
Graceless, demeaned, and ill mannered
The falling, the spinning, the dancing
The falling, the spinning, the dancing
The falling, the spinning, the dancing
The falling…

I am pottery, piece by piece
I have come unglued, the shattering

And I have come unglued, the shattering...
