Idol Of Oils
from Countertorch by Tendon Levey
lyrics
I will dance when it’s likely I’ve torn the bandage off
Knowing I’ll never have another friend as he
I’ve seen you in dragon clothes
Holding the audience by their soles
When you held my gore and smiled
We had bonded tight
I’ve seen you in dragon clothes
Holding the audience by their soles
When you held my gore and smiled
Scorn was then in kind
It’s over now
Though artfully drawn, you have waved away
wearing out another’s glove
Every but the longest fingers fold
I will dance when it’s likely a stain is left instead
Only by the gamy blood of his death
Knowing I’ll never have another friend as he
I’ve seen you in dragon clothes
Holding the audience by their soles
When you held my gore and smiled
We had bonded tight
I’ve seen you in dragon clothes
Holding the audience by their soles
When you held my gore and smiled
Scorn was then in kind
It’s over now
Though artfully drawn, you have waved away
wearing out another’s glove
Every but the longest fingers fold
I will dance when it’s likely a stain is left instead
Only by the gamy blood of his death
