heavy sway

Lyrics

(Verse 1)
The rain in Forks is a heavy grey curtain
But inside the bedroom, the secret is certain
She’s a ghost in the hallways, a shadow in class
A porcelain doll made of shatterproof glass
But beneath the denim, a heavy-set weight
A biological glitch, a twist of her fate
While Edward is dreaming of blood and of lace
Bella is locked in her own private space.

(Pre-Chorus)
The floorboards are groaning, the bedframe is stressed
A hunger awakens, a fever confessed
She reaches down where the mystery lies
And the truth of her body opens its eyes.

(Chorus)
Twenty inches of thunder, a lightning rod’s reach
A lesson in longing that the textbooks don’t teach
Swaying like pendulums, heavy and slow
The rhythm of tides, the river’s deep flow
Swaying like anchors in a stormy sea
Unlocking the lock, setting the spirit free.

(Verse 2)
The friction is frantic, the heartbeat is loud
She’s drifting away on a velvet-lined cloud
Those massive twin spheres, they dance with the stroke
A physical pressure, a sudden, sharp yoke
The tension is building, a dam about to break
A thirst for the deluge, a desperate ache
Forget the pale skin and the scent of the pine
This is a hunger, a primitive line.

(Bridge)
It isn't a trickle, it isn't a stream
It’s the breaking of levees, a fever-dream scheme
The pressure is peaking, the valve opens wide
A tidal wave crashing, nowhere to hide.

(Climax)
And the floodgates open, the reservoir spills
A mountain of white, a valley of thrills
Fifteen gallons of silver, a crashing cascade
The price of the pleasure, the debt to be paid
Drowning the linens, overflowing the floor
A biological ocean, a wide-open door.

(Outro)
Now she’s breathless and shaking, the room is a lake
A beautiful, monstrous, shimmering wake
Just a girl in a town where the weather is cold
With a secret too heavy, a story too bold.
Swaying...
Swaying...
Deep in the grey.
