The Way I Deux - Little Wings

The gloom crept up from all around

Waving hands, I batted it down

Once I see it there’s no stopping

I cry and shake, my fists are knocking

At every door I rattle my cage

Through the floor some battle I wage

Oh I would at any old age

I kick and cry and read my rage

Oh behind doors I’m waiting

Under the curtain’s my shoe

My reflection’s celebrating

All of the deadly deeds it can do

Shadows hesitating

To creep in or creeping into

Silent time is made for waiting

It waits for me and for you too

The gloom crept up from all around

With waving hands, I batted it down

Once I see it there’s no stopping

I cry and shake, my fists are knocking

At every door I rattle my cage

To the floor some war I wage

Oh I would at any old age

I kick and cry and weep and rage

Oh behind doors I’m waiting

Under the curtain’s my shoe

My reflection’s celebrating

All of the deadly deeds it can do

Shadows hesitating

To creep in or creeping into

Silent time is made for waiting

It waits for me and for you too

While we wait as we deux

We hesitate but we push on through

With the face of me and the face of you

While we wait as we deux

The way I deux is dark and

The way I deux is hearkened

Only the way of anything that’s living

Only way I do what I feel fitting

I thought it was for my love

Hands on your chest, move around like

I thought it was for my heart

Icy cold eyes and a cold white sno-cone

I thought it was for anyone

Mouth on my mouth with a new wet warm tongue

I thought it was for anything

That put the shine back on the jewel in the ring

The way I deux is dark and

The way I deux is hearkened

Only the way of anything that’s living

Only way I do what I feel fitting

I thought it was for my love

Hands on your chest, move around like

I thought it was for my heart

Icy cold eyes and a cold white sno-cone

I thought it was for anyone

Mouth on my mouth with a new wet warm tongue

I thought it was for anything

We put the shine back on the jewel in the ring

The way I deux is dark and

The way I deux is hearkened

The way I deux is dark and

The way I deux is hearkened
