Moonface Minotaur Forgiving Pasiphae Lyrics

You were feeling strange
He had no name
He had four legs
You had one wing
You had no candles in your window
You had been walking in the fog
He had been eating from your manger
He had no name

You were feeling strange
You were the first explorer
He had four strong legs
You had a broken wing
You were a slowly closing door
You were an instrument of vengeance
A fang in a mouth
He had no name

But you were not totally out of your mind
You still had the venom within you
To go find your friend the inventor
And maybe he loved you or he loved your eyes
He still had the venom within him
To help you step into his woodwork

You were feeling strange
He came out of the sea
He had a new kind of crown
You had a haunted mind
You had no one to grab your wrist
You had no sense of shame
He was a siren
He had no name

Tell me
Tell me
Were you really in a spell?
Tell me
Tell me
Were you really in a spell?
Tell me
Tell me
Were you really in a spell, spell, spell?
Tell me
Tell me
Were you really in a spell?

You were feeling strange
You had a haunted heart
He had an animal heart
You had a broken wing
You were a slowly opening dark red rose
He was an instrument of pain
A fang in a mouth
He had no name

If you were not already lost at sea
You must have been drawn to the sadness
Like a ship going west
And did you not once anticipate me
Or were you a rat in a maze
Making a rat in a maze?

You were a slowly closing door
But you were not totally out of your mind
You still had the venom within you
To go find your friend the inventor
You were a slowly opening rose
And maybe he loved you or he loved your eyes
You still had the venom within you
To strap yourself into the woodwork
But I forgive you

Tell me
Tell me
Were you really in a spell?
Tell me
Tell me
Were you really in a spell?
Tell me
Tell me
Were you really in a spell, spell, spell?
Tell me
Tell me
Were you really in a spell?
Tell me
Tell me
Were you really in a spell?
Tell me
Tell me
Were you really in a spell?
Tell me
Tell me
Were you really in a spell?
Tell me
Tell me
Were you really in a spell?
