Flies in amber, sand in soap

Brass trapped in the glass

Tongue-tied, I cut and run

Fleeing ever faster

Behind the armory

I will never let you see

Behind the armory

Still, I want you to love me

Sleeping giant, Joan of Arc

Fold me in your grace

From the garbage to the stars

We'll make new constellations

Behind the armory

Still, I want you to love me

Still, I want you to love me

Through the vines and the street

Slants the light and the heat

As narrow as the archer’s window grows

But it’s a rare stone

In a century thrown to me

Through the vines from the streets

Slants the light and the heat

As narrow as the archer’s window grows

Behind the armory

I will never let you see

Behind the armory

Still, I want you to love me

Still, I want you to love me
