lyrics

“Doze” by Potion Cafe

Speak like you know everything about me.
I won’t let it show. Do you know what you’ve begun?
You will doubt yourself every time
I decide to shed my outer image,
Churn in the juice that saturates my mind.

We will grow. We will doze.
(Cut across my heart. Cut across my heart.)
We will die. We will fly.
(I will be reborn. I will be reborn.)
We will grow.

Tear from my chest deep emotive complexes.
Strip me away from myself and all that’s left is you
And you’ll find not a single thing worth taking.
Make no mistake. You thought you were real but you’re fake.

We will grow. We will doze.
(Cut across my heart. Cut across my heart.)
We will die. We will fly.
(I will be reborn. I will be reborn.)
We will grow. We will doze.
(Cut across my heart. Cut across my heart.)
We will die.

And I hatched in the wake of catastrophe.
You stood so silently, staring out at the debris.
We looked at the world with our brand new eyes.
We couldn’t recognize anything at all.
And we reconciled our petty differences,
insignificant in light of everything.
We waited for our wings so delicate,
and said our last farewells, before we went our separate ways.

We will grow. We will doze.
(There is nothing left for us anymore.)
We will die. We will fly.
(We have reconciled every last regret.)
We will grow. We will doze.
(I still love you, but we can’t carry on lying.)
We will die.
