lyrics

I thought you'd be there for me
like the chords I never speak
Drum, drum drum drum on the keys
The Stenographer pleads

pray in stage lights bright as flame
Can you type fast like me?
Ignore my red insolence
The Stenographer bleeds

Broken keys and oiled gears
You listen but never hear
Twisted paper cuts your tears
Your final task is growing near
Strike out now and don't forget
The man you killed with no regret
blood stays fast, my heart is set
And you, my dear, your death is next

Unhand me now,
You most despised yet renowned
You write and write and write but not a word can get me down
Surrender now,
What you can't reign over drowns
pulled under and under by your red eyes
the stenographer writes

the stenographer writes

the stenographer writes

can you type fast like me?

twitchy fingers missing visions
stenotyping, lost your mission
hear of a silent collusion
deeper than you could envision
should've asked before you looked
you fool you didn't need to push
a moment missed, your life it took
i'm the queen and you're the rook

he will pay for those he's killed now
she will lay her chorder down now
he will let his loved ones die now
she won't tell another lie now

Unhand me now,
You most despised yet renowned
You write and write and write but not a word can get me down
Surrender now,
What you can't reign over drowns
pulled under and under by your red eyes
the stenographer writes

won't you die now
you bitter ended and unfound
you type and type and type but not a word can break me down
leave us all now
why cheer if you can't have your crown?
escaping, escaping your red eyes
the stenographer cries
