Lyrics Dawn Golden

Dawn Golden

Discoloration

You took my hand and brought me down in the morning

And I was sitting, waiting for the telephone to swallow me whole.

I saw your face reflected on the resonant screen

And I watched your mouth moving like a tired machine

Trying to plead with me

Trying to swallow me whole.

It's been a while

Since I've been gone and away

And I watched your eyes reflect me in a terrible way

As you cast your gaze to the flickering hall.

And you knelt beside me and

You started to pray

And the whites of your eyes blackened

With a hardened decay

And you talked to me in a broken voice

"In your open mouth

Silence me in the coursing

Blood in my eyes

Dress me in your clothes

And swallow me whole"
