in a fog - thru a veil
Caught a glimpse
Through a veil
Your eyes aglow
Your body like
A monolith
That I am not supposed to know
Thoughts intrude
Thoughts slipping
Through my animal mind
Should I bear
The burden
For the way that I am built inside
Avert thine eyes, avert thine eyes, avert thine eyes
Or you'll go blind, or you'll go blind, or you'll go blind
If you stare at the light, if you stare at the light, if you stare at the light
Directly
Mask slippin'
Catch a peak
My deep shadow
Can't say for sure
If I'm the same person
That you thought you knew before
Tears well up
Pool and drop
A sob, a heave, a sigh
All the shapes
And colors
Blend together in those weary eyes
Avert thine eyes, avert thine eyes, avert thine eyes
Or you'll go blind, or you'll go blind, or you'll go blind
If you stare at the light, if you stare at the light, if you stare at the light
Directly
Caught a glimpse
Through a veil
A subtle glow
You are
A universe
That I don't get to fully know
The streetlight through
The barren branches
Cold wet night
Manifests
Some sort of magic
In my tired mind
How can I approach you?
How am I to court you?
If I can't even know you
You won't let me know you
Avert thine eyes, avert thine eyes, avert thine eyes
Or you'll go blind, or you'll go blind, or you'll go blind
If you stare at the light, if you stare at the light, if you stare at the light
Directly
