Frileuse from Sorry Tomorrow by Children Having Children

I fail to recognize a threat
Should've known you were the mole
Uncompromised by crooked spine
A dandelion tailored to the role
They sent their best
But I'm still wishing that I'd kissed you in the cold
With the boldness of the frozen
Upon the unimpressed
Relentless
Vague as thunder
In control

Reduced by the girl in the gown
No use…but dutifully bound
Frileuse, you can't let me down
You can't let me down

Like yesterday's recluse
If I beg for you and liar's dice come true
Is that going to be enough? No
Is this going to be the touch that takes me?
I'm still warming up
Building blood
Making the familiar new
Second guessing

I'll be sorry tomorrow
But I'm taking the fall
For a chance to pretend
I am safely surrounded
When do I get to see you starlit again?

I’ve been detached from my embarrassment
By the spectacle
But no conspirator’s alone
Teach me the shame of calling forth your Christian name
Frileuse, you're tearing me down
I wish that I were man enough to blame you

But if you won't be allowed
Then why dirty a glass?
And why tarnish a vow
When you know someday I'll ask

To be the skyscraper next to yours
And tower one hundred floors
The skyscraper next to yours
A pillar of remorse
Painted black with the proof
Nameless and aloof
To see you waving back from the roof
