Dazzle Lyrics
[Intro]
The stars that shine and the stars that shrink
In the face of stagnation, the water runs before your eyes
[Verse 1]
Swallowing diamonds, a cutting throat
Your teeth when you grin reflecting beams on tombstones
A jamboree of surprises, playing Russian roulette or the Lucky Dip
A clenched fist to your heart, coal dust on your lungs
[Verse 2]
A silver tongue for the chosen one
Heavy magnum in your side, or a bloody thorn
Skating bullets on angel dust in a dead sea of fluid mercury
Baby piano cries under your heavy index and thumb
Pull some strings, let them sing
[Chorus]
The stars that shine and the stars that shrink
In the face of stagnation, the water runs before your eyes
[Bridge]
Dazzle, it's a glittering prize
Dazzle, it's a glittering prize
Before your eyes, it's a glittering prize
The stars that shine and the stars that shrink
In the face of stagnation, the water runs before your eyes
[Verse 1]
Swallowing diamonds, a cutting throat
Your teeth when you grin reflecting beams on tombstones
A jamboree of surprises, playing Russian roulette or the Lucky Dip
A clenched fist to your heart, coal dust on your lungs
[Verse 2]
A silver tongue for the chosen one
Heavy magnum in your side, or a bloody thorn
Skating bullets on angel dust in a dead sea of fluid mercury
Baby piano cries under your heavy index and thumb
Pull some strings, let them sing
[Chorus]
The stars that shine and the stars that shrink
In the face of stagnation, the water runs before your eyes
[Bridge]
Dazzle, it's a glittering prize
Dazzle, it's a glittering prize
Before your eyes, it's a glittering prize
[Outro]
The stars that shine and the stars that shrink
In the face of stagnation, the water runs before your eyes
The stars that shine and the stars that shrink
In the face of stagnation, the water runs before your eyes
