Valkyrie
Curxes Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've never been patient
Subtle, or vacant
When thinking of ways that could persuade
The one from the home lands
The safest of all hands
That there is a name that should have stayed

Standing in front of

Irrational reasons
Do you just treat them
The same, the same, the same, the same, oh?
I am the creature
Of fauna and feature
Waiting to teach you
A different game

For all reasons, falter, breath then
Come through
Any piece of leisurely mind
Find its presence, find...
Trying to be everything but anything of mine
Any piece of leisurely mind
Find its pleasures, find!

Standing in front of
Any real reason
Do you just bleed them
The same, the same, the same, the same, oh?
I am a creature
Of fauna and feature
Waiting to teach you
A different game

For all reasons, falter, breath then
Come through
Any piece of leisurely mind
Find its presence, find...
Trying to be everything but anything of mine

Any piece of leisurely mind
Find its pleasures, find!

I've never been patient
I have never had the quality of being patient

Subtle, or vacant
Nor have I been discrete or empty-minded

When thinking of ways that could persuade
Every time I consider methods of persuasion

The one from the home lands
A person from my homeland

The safest of all hands
Who is the safest and most reliable

That there is a name that should have stayed
I am convinced that a specific name should have remained

Standing in front of
Encountering

Irrational reasons
Unreasonable explanations

Do you just treat them
Are they just dealt with

The same, the same, the same, the same, oh?
In the same manner, repeatedly?
