Lick The Palm Of The Burning Handshake – Zola Jesus

I’m the only one that sticks around
When they call your name out of a crowd
And you say you don’t hurt when I’m going alone
And you know it don’t hurt but I keep it strong
So I don’t try to go
I just won’t and you know
The need to know it takes you over
Takes you over
The need to grow it takes you under
Takes you under
It fails to the keep in all resistance
To the listen again and again
It takes you over again and again
It takes you over

I’m the only one that makes a sound
And I know the plane is going down
When you say you don’t see the red in my eyes
Do you really want to bring the fire outside?
I don’t want you to go
Close my eyes I’ll never show
The need to know it takes you over
Takes you over
The need to grow it takes you under
Takes you under
It fails to the keep in all resistance
To the listen again and again
It takes you over again and again
It takes you over
Oh, oh, oh
