Thrice - Silhouette Lyrics

Your eyes followed me here
Your eyes seamless and sure
The leave me broken and in need of a cure

Your eyes followed me hear
Your eyes sifting my soul
They leave me broken hands, those diamonds

They lace me along
Giving synapse of white lines
Then chasing the dawn
Story book syntax

Your eyes slit the throat of all I know
About myself and this life
Silhouette lies

And your eyes speaking in tongues
Vigilant still filling my lungs
Testing my will
They leave me broken and bruised and bleeding

Your eyes resting in flame
Leaving me breathless again
Like hydrogen speak on fault lines
Or dead, kissing me with exposure to radon

Your eyes slit the throat of all I know
About myself and this life
Silhouette lies

Your eyes, your eyes
Speaking in tongues
Vigilant still, lead our way
Filling my lungs
Testing my will

You slit the throat, of all I know
About myself and this life
Silhouette lies

You slit my throat
Because I know
That this life is a lie
So slit my throat
