lyrics

Ogre

We played in the ocean, we waded and dipped
Gave you my arms, you gave me your lips
You dried up the ocean in one little sip
Gave back my soul all cracking and chipped

I painted your portrait, you painted it over
Offered my youth, you made it much older
I came as an angel, but left as an ogre
Once had a scent, now have an odour

One hour of sleep, uncertain we dangled
Expression unanswered, preserved yet entangled
The dream was not straight, t’was twisted and mangled
The air and the image, constricting, we strangled

We opened the window, the daylight was freezing
Time, it had stopped, the sun only teasing
Our shadows in bed, all bones barely breathing
We left them for dead, the grace in our leaving

I painted your portrait, you painted it over
Offered my youth, you made it much older
I once had a scent, I now have an odour
Came as an angel, but I leave as an ogre
