waltz no.36 - lucas scarab lyrics

[verse 1]
i know the world is on fire
it’s lit by our desire
but the heat couldn’t break me, couldn’t melt my frozen heart
your smile was a sliver of the moon
and your life was stolen too soon
and if i listen close, i can still hear the screams
you’re the spectre haunting my dreams

[verse 2]
and we know this intricate dance
was never once a romance
but as they say, ignorance is bliss
and i can’t carry on without this
you know i’d stop if i could
pressing shards of glass in the wood
if you’d just let sleeping dogs lie
if you’d let dying soldiers die
[verse 3]
thеre’s safety in numbers, that’s truе
but there’s sanity in solitude
in spite of, or maybe because of this, you got in my head
you figured i’d drown in the flood
but i’ve done away my fear of blood
there’s a tiny spark left i can barely explain
how were you both the fire and the rain?

[verse 4]
and i’m sure you’d rather pretend
you were simply being a friend
you know i’m not dumb, just easily swayed
but i sure recognized your blade
and i’m sure it’s much more fun
when you’re the one holding the gun
if you’d just let broken men heal
if you’d let wooden soldiers feel

[verse 5]
we know this intricate dance
was never once a romance
but as they say, ignorance is bliss
and i can’t carry on without this
you know i’d stop if i could
pressing shards of glass in the wood
if you’d just let sleeping dogs lie
if you’d let dying soldiers die

[lyric note]
w: okay, um, uh..
[sound of shuffling papers.]
w: okay! tenth audio report of dr. [redacted] w[redacted], recorded on july 14th, 2467, etcetera, etcetera. i don’t really get the whole technical format that dr. t[redacted] insisted we use, but hey, it’s not my call, so. i have been doing a lot of studying of the subject of a somewhat more personal nature, despite recommendations from my coworkers that i not do that, and um..
[w clears his throat.]
w: i think this thing is a lot more human than my boss wants to admit. i mean, how do you quantify that? he’s sentient, sapient** he shows a preference for types of music, for f*ck’s sake. the only thing is that we can’t seem to figure out what he.. wants
[sound of shuffling papers.]
w: i have this report from one of my lab technicians here, let’s see, um.. quote, “the body seems to sit perfectly motionless for extended periods of time, the longest one observed being just over six hours. it is always capable of responding to external stimuli, and does so whenever any is presented to it, but if no stimulus is provided, it has never been observed exhibiting any behavior at all.”
[sound of papers hitting the desk.]
w: it’s just** it’s just that sapient creatures don’t act like this. there’s always some desire, even if all they have is their id. food, water, warmth and comfort, anything to show that they have needs. but if he doesn’t have needs, or wants**
lucas: oh, i have wants
[the door slams open and a faint wind is heard.]
w: …oh, christ
lucas: something like that
