seanan mcguire - modern mystic [live] كلمات الأغنية

[verse]
well i’m a modern sort of mystic and a little solipsistic
and i guess it’s true i sometimes go too far
you can tell me i’m a liar, i won’t question your desires
i just wish i knew exactly what they are
hear the roll of distant thunder, pick me up and put me under
just be careful with those claws so i don’t scar
i can’t promise you’re not dreaming; can you swear that i’m not screaming
now before you press my back up to the bar?

[verse]
i have lived in several ages, danced across the world’s pages
scrawled my name upon the path of passing time
i’ve lost friends and i’ve left lovers, taking eons to discover
there are wounds that distance simply won’t refine
give me shelter from the rainfall, give me courage for the cast call
teach me every cue and feed me every line
all those things that you aren’t saying are the things i’m not obeying
if you ask me to be yours i won’t decline

[verse]
well i’m a witch without a spellbook, i’m just searching for a kind look
and a gentle word to get me through the night
wrap me up in chains, confuse me, cut, confound and then abuse me
i promise i’ll give up without a fight
these half hidden lacerations won’t be cured by incantations
but they just might heal if i can see the light
i can’t promise to obey you, i can’t swear i won’t betray you
or that when the morning comes i won’t take flight
[chorus]
and the pain is an elixir like a long slow drink of gin
and the absinthe and the wormwood are the lost years creeping in
i keep coming back and drinking, i’m a barfly who won’t learn
i am gulping pretty poisons that devour me in return

[verse]
i have seen the serpent turning, i have watched the cities burning
i have wondered why the omens were ignored
deal the cards and trade the glances, roll the dice and take your chances
making bargains that our souls can ill afford
in the darkness that comes after, i have heard the shattered laughter
from the ones who say that death’s their only lord
break me bind and undo me, light the fires and renew me
when the morning comes i’ll rise to my reward

[chorus]
and the pain is an elixir like a long slow drink of gin
and the absinthe and the wormwood are the lost years creeping in
i keep coming back and drinking, i’m a barfly who won’t learn
i am gulping pretty poisons that devour me in return

[verse]
well i’m a modern sort of mystic and a little solipsistic
and i know it’s true i often go too far
you can tell me i’m a liar, i won’t question your desires
though i wish i knew exactly who you are
hear the roll of closing thunder, pick me up and pull me under
just be careful with those claws ’cause i’ve been scarred
i can’t promise you’re not dreaming, but i swear to you, i’m screaming
come on, press me just this once against the bar
