Lyrics Bliss n Eso

Bliss n Eso

Headless Princess

One breath

As I sit and smell the flowers, the berries, the very fern that will

Excrete this aroma as I sit at the ferry terminal

With the sky above, my eye moved towards it

I soaked up an image, freezeframed the portrait

An instant, turned into an ocean of eternity

It's Vincent, filled with this emotion that is burning me

For what I saw before me needs no explanation

She just riveted my lungs there was no exhalation

So many questions darted through my frozen, pondering mind

My interest had arisen from her fondling spines

And I must confess, that I am so impressed with the way she strides

And the way she sighs and the way she glides

With those dreamers eyes

It's more than just a term that lies between her thighs

And through these beer bottle flavours in my life

I see clear what can neighbour with my slice of bliss

The dormant evil that awaits in the grunge

Only to emerge after you have taken the plunge

And I don't understand how a serpent has a heart

While I'm just a man, a merchant with his cart

And all I wanna do is barter a mere couple of phrases

I admit this is the clear trouble with gazes

To decode this combination, she's the glitch in my system

From chaos to what is simple, it's the hitch of encryption

It's the pursuit of the chase, it's the fun of the catch

To find that beautiful face, that lies under the latch

When you unlock the mystery, below undercover

You see the simple beauty in just getting to know one another

It's like my motor, she can just soothe cool

But only a few fools, would ever risk it and look into those pupils

So I pluck my vocal chords, so I can sing to this butterfly

But I can't utter my thoughts, and they reverse to see her flutter by.

Feel it in your chest, feel it in your heart

I need a place to lay, I need a place to start

If this ain't it, you've been lying all along

Cause the path you laid girl, it only made me strong

Cause I was once a seed that needed, loving from the seasons feeded

Off your stream that's bleedin' treason, now I'm a tree breathing freedom

On my bank but you burnt those bridges

So now I stare across at you pile of bitches

(Eso)

Bars, pubs, clubs

Freak-nicks, drenched in vampires blood

But wait, she looks like a nice girl, I'd like to meet her

She seems a little lost though, I'll try and reach her

(Ethic)

"Nah, that's oblivious, don't get involved

She's known to hold the dice of life and let it roll"

(Eso)

Oh, I see, a bit of a gambler

I'll grab my cape and a bag of convo', I think I can handle her

There's stories that she owns a red light to tell the time

I'm ready to judge a book from the inside as well as mine

So excuse me miss, as rude as this is

I'd like you to take this tape I made I made, cause my crews on some shit

And we hit the cofee shop, she's singin' lullabies

We should probably stop, I don't wanna get played like those other guys

That's why this mix tape, is for you to borrow

And if you dig this shit here's my number, call me tomorrow

And as the sun fell, and the moon climbed

She went home, locked herself in her room, only to soon find

That music can manipulate your mind state

And if you use it as a wish it'll find ways

To blow out all the candles and know how to handle your mind, hitch hiking near my place

Her night was a highlight, listening close was not what she'd usually do

Her ceiling was a skyline with a beautiful view

There's the vision and the truth from the booth

See girl I told you what this muthafucking music would do

The next day she was happy as hell

Skipping down the block, now she's back to herself

Anyone could naturally tell she's no longer trapped in a well

And the music in her mind, fool, had actually helped

But all it took was a taste, to see those get money muthafuckas dangling dollars in her face

You punks don't know me or my eerie feel

I learnt rhythm from ghosts tapping on the steering wheel

Every car ride, was like a start

I've got, art in my heart

Girl and there seems to be no light left, my soul is on empty

I'm running out of love, I'm running out of Mud, send me

Another note, some energised words of wisdom

Let me go, to a place of isolated vision.

But I'm steering this boat to uncharted lands

We need to understand, that one part of man

It three parts of the devil thinking why I can't make this boiling water settle

A dog alone in his kennel

Oh but wait, you see it's just a dead end

That headless princess could've been your fuckin' best friend

Unsettled by the fact they don't see the good times

Blind as bats to the future they could find

But it never really does, cease to amaze me

Why I scream fuck swamp donkeys and peace to the ladies

Cause money is a hypnotist they're dazzled by the lavish shit

You wanna give me a blow job, I'll act like I have to piss

I'm no brick wall, you wanna leave, grab your shit

But don't come back in my life, like yo let's have a kiss

If only through my eyes you could see the shit

But you can't oblivious so go ahead beat it bitch

Alright now, this is the breakdown, here is the setting

Alive for 24 years and already forgetting

What if felt like to be, one-half of her an me

Until forcibly, I'll return to twenty-three

Never have met, I didn't ever expect

To have crept into a situation I never will let

Be something I've left when I leave, quiet as kept

While the sea parts, the beast starts

To speak hearts, I see an artful approach

To convey what I wrote

A thousand times, in my mind with the hope

That for once, people don't just come and go

Yeah, I know that I'm supposed

To fly away, in a sunset serenade

While tomorrow cherishes the memory of today

I stay hollow, this time my back wasn't exposed

To the passing of someone I never would know

I never would grow, despite the cost

And at the end of the day, I've come to love the loss

And on the off chance that she falls again

I'm walking backwards so she still knows who I am.

[Hook x2]
