Acretongue

Amber Lyrics

Amber curls through the night

Hungry bodies - warm light

Our shadows dance on the walls

You fear the questions I call



Crooked coil, burnt to black

The scab that always comes back

And as my 'want' turns to 'need'

I see your shadow recede



And just like all flames burn away

You never really planned to stay

The unknown man that you betrayed

Recur in scenes you can't replay



You don't see what you freed

The debris now feeds me



The lack of answers

Turns trust to anger

It feeds a cancer

That kills the amber
