Lyrics
Intoxicating Despair
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Think'st thou to seduce me then with words that have no meaning
Parrots so can learn to prate our speech by pieces gleaming
Nurses teach their children so about the time of weaning
Think'st thou to seduce me then with words that have no meaning
This first step to the madness
Is the excess of sadness
Since false desire could borrow
Tears of dissembled sorrow
In intoxicating despair
We must all be laid
Gnawing at stone
Ruth forgive me if I erred from humane heart's compassion
When I laughed sometimes too much to see their foolish fashion
But alas who else could do that or find such good occasion
Ruth forgive me if I erred from humane heart's compassion
(From law of nature they digress whose form suits not their mind)
