I take the dress down from the attic
I slip her on and tie her lace
Tonight she might be stained and battered
In your dangerous embrace
I am satin, fretted and frayed
By life's jagged edges
When I let myself out to play
Despite consequences
Intensity is muted by pretending
It's not in reverence for your spark
Just for the severance of strings
That bound me, kept me from my heart
Yet everything I make and do
In this labyrinth of doubt
Is a misguided lovesong to you
Wouldn't mean anything without
(Oh let it out let it out!)
I take the dress down from the attic
I slip her on and lace her ties
Tonight she might be torn and tattered
Just because we are alive
I slip her on and tie her lace
Tonight she might be stained and battered
In your dangerous embrace
I am satin, fretted and frayed
By life's jagged edges
When I let myself out to play
Despite consequences
Intensity is muted by pretending
It's not in reverence for your spark
Just for the severance of strings
That bound me, kept me from my heart
Yet everything I make and do
In this labyrinth of doubt
Is a misguided lovesong to you
Wouldn't mean anything without
(Oh let it out let it out!)
I take the dress down from the attic
I slip her on and lace her ties
Tonight she might be torn and tattered
Just because we are alive
