Lyrics
As stilled as a flower
As ruined as a saint where true met true
Let's feast on his rage
Unleash what allays our muse
I realize
Realize, I realize
I'd believed what was lonely in you
"I realize", said the knife to the spoon
I believed what was lonely in you
Shake hard this summons
With bottles tossed
Down said seas of noise
In notes and sighs to the void
I'd love you to follow
A star on the rise, entombed by blue
In heed of the sage
I've sent out of a faith once removed
I realize
Realize, I realize
It's only the lonely who should lose
"I realize", said the knife to the spoon
It's only the lonely who lose
As fools 'cross a cosmos
As a soot on your age
Where true cuts true
I've had you beside
To show me what always might do
I'd love you to follow
A star on the rise, entombed by blue
In heed of the sage
I've sent out of faith once removed
I realize
Realize, I realize
It's only the lonely who should lose
"I realize", said the knife to the spoon
"It's only the lonely who lose"
I realize
Realize, I realize
It's only the lonely
