War Of Words

from Fault Lines² by IAMX

lyrics

Quiet but clear, a gentle yes 
I trust your boundaries 
I will heed to the consent call 

I’ll weave a new world for conscience’ sake 
Of sacred after-care 
I will heed to the consent call 

As brittle as glass
Shatter when you lay with us, lay with us
In our primal  glory 
Lean into authenticity 

All the harsh turns, white lies, borderlines 
My head will never stop spinning until we begin
The war of words we need to wage 

War of words

Stay with me you’re not leaving the room, not today 

Am I too much? Can I not touch
Your physical being
When your libido is feeding off my infidelity? 

War of words 

I’ll make it my duty to level the playing field
Of blind misogyny 
All heed to the consent call 

Libertarian, eccentric, autistic, ADD
I will not kneel to the patriarchy 

No apologies 

I live what I was born to be
Take the fights, weather the falls 

Venomous, sensual 

Super-stimulus that I chose 

Trauma into pleasure 

I will heed, I will heed to the consent call 

All the harsh turns, white lies, borderlines 
My head will never stop spinning until I win
The war of words we always wage 

War of words

Stay with me you’re not leaving the room, not today 

Am I too much? Can I not touch
Your beautiful physical being
When your libido is feeding off my infidelity? 

War of words

War of words

Read to me, read to me
Why don’t you take something historical
Or philosophy?
I need to sleep
