Lyrics

She was cuffed to the truth like the truth was a chair
Bright interrogation light in her eyes, and her conscience lit a cigarette and just stood there, waiting for her to crack, waiting for her to cry
His face scampered through her mind like a roach across the wall
It made her heart soar, it made her skin crawl
They said, "we got this confession. we just need for you to sign
Why don't you just cooperate?
Make this easier on us all?
Make this easier on us all..
Just make this easier on us all."
There was light and then there was darkness
And there was no line in between
And asking her heart for guidance was like pleading with a machine
Yeah, cause joy it has its own justice and my dreams are languid and lawless
And everything bows to beauty when it is fierce and it is flawless..
When it is fierce... when it is flawless..."
On the table were two zip-loc baggies containing her eyes and her smile
They said we're keeping these as evidence until this thing goes to trial
Meanwhile anguish was fingering solace in another room down the hall
Both were love's accomplices but solace took the fall
Now look at her book of days, it's the same on every page
She's got a little tin cup with her heart in it to bang along the bars of her rib cage..
To bang along the bars of her rib cage..
There was light and then there was darkness
And there was no line in between
And asking her heart for guidance was like pleading with a machine
Cause joy it has its own justice and my dreams are made with all of us
They said "everything bows to beauty when it is fierce and it is flawless..
When it is fierce..
When it is flawless..."
Fierce..
