One Who Descends (4​-​Track Demo)

from Demos EP by Personnes

/

lyrics

Someone told me my name means “To die”
And someone told me they could fix my eyes
But they’re just lies, no more than lies

But I have learned to sleep all through the night
I just cut out my dreams of starting fights
For my delight; Now I’m alright

Oh, oh, oh...

You don’t look at me like I think you should
And you don’t think of us the way you would
if you understood my will is good

My heart tried to beat but skipped and choked
The thin-as-nothing blood runs through it's throat
Now I float and howl just like a ghost

Oh, oh, oh...

I don't want to be the one
Who's at the bottom in the end
It won't make sense if we're still one
Not if I'm the one who descends

I let another killer in our home
He said he meant no harm and walked alone
I was born a fool and have not grown

And I hate being alive here in between
The things I do and what I claim to believe
The words I speak and the things I mean

Oh, oh, oh...
