Testo Avenue of Trees - Parenthetical Girls
Testo della canzone Avenue of Trees (Parenthetical Girls), tratta dall'album Entanglements
Oh so young when first I fell to fawn
But now it's four years on
And though slight, your shape belies
The teenage timbre of your tongue
Face and frame, precious and plain
Yet all such things one day succumb
You were ten as I turned twenty-one
But now it's four years on
Liberties such as these
Scarcely troubling me
Weakness, please, the way you tease
Quattordici and spotty cheeks
Favors me such strange relief
From certain culpabilities
And renders seem so indiscreet
Some day to which we'd seldom speak
So tender me this decency
That stays thee safely out of reach
All the same, were it true
Still there's room for two
Inside of you
But what's come over me?
Would I falter hapless in your fleur-de-lis
Or spare expense beneath?
Oh no, not me
So sickened to the teeth to see me rendered free
Of hallowed modesties
But all that I could be
Among those fresh and fair-faced thieves
That stand to seize
Your sun-bleached symmetries
And piece by piece
These brief eventualities
Would reap of me
In feats flown far from me
Who'd treat you tenderly
Until we cease to be
