The Start of Something
Vox Trot Lyrics

This time of night I could call you up
Late at night, I have the urge to call you

I'd get angry with athletic ease, break common laws in twos and threes
I can easily get angry and recklessly break laws when thinking of you

If I die clutching your photograph
If I were to die holding onto a photo of you

Don't call me boring, it's just 'cause I like you
My actions may seem dull but it's because I care for you

Take me on back, take me on back, take me back
Bring me back to the place where we were together

To the place where I could feel your heart
To the place where I could feel your love

Is this the end or just the start of Something really, really beautiful
Uncertainty of whether this is the beginning or end of something beautiful

Wrapped up and disguised as something really, really ugly
Beautiful thing disguised as something unpleasant

Won't you Come by and see me, I'm a love letter away
Asking to come visit by sending a love letter

I'd break your name before I'd say, "I really love you, love you"
Rather than saying "I love you", I would ruin your reputation

I don't care if you saw, I watched every inch of film Flash across your Roman features, And I loved it, loved it; I don't care if
Even though you may have noticed, I still enjoyed seeing you in every frame

You think I'm eager to shut your eyes
You may think I want to harm you, but I don't

Well I'm sorry everybody knows you can't break me with your gutter prose
I am sorry, but your rude words won't upset me

Would you believe it, she sent me a letter The ring, it nearly weighs her down, she's got another boy, oh boy
Surprised to receive a letter from someone with a heavy engagement ring, who is seeing someone else

Steady your ears, steady you ears, read my lips Poetry is not a luxury, it's how I'll break this home
Pay attention, poetry is my weapon to transform my home

And when I'm really ill, won't you cradle me?
When I am unwell, can you hold and comfort me?

Man is not a noble animal, but maybe woman is, remember
Humans are not necessarily noble, but women may be

Inside your room, you said, "She'd never really live Until your back's against the wall" oh did you really mean it?
You said someone won't truly live until they are in a tough situation, did you really believe that?

I never break my gaze, if just to see this scar remain reflected in your eyes
I maintain eye contact just to see the scar I caused in your eyes

I think it's time to go home
It's time to leave

Oh, tell me your thoughts, tell me your thoughts on liberty
Share with me your opinion on freedom

See there's a place where I sink to sleeping
There's a place where I can completely relax and rest

She said "Oh, my vote is as red as my blood Will you join me for another round? I haven't had the chance to speak yet"
Her vote is important to her and she invites someone to talk more over drinks

God speed I break the law once every week to feel your touch,
Wishing good luck and admitting to breaking the law to be with you

What's a book to you in bed, Do you feel better, older?
Does reading in bed make you feel better or older?

This just makes me ill, your name is dripping from my pen Still you're not around to curse, I'll drop the gun now, say I'm still under you
Writing your name makes me sick, but I still feel inferior without you

Marianne, let the ghosts sleep tonight Marianne, let the ghosts sleep, just shut your eyes and burn the past
Marianne, it's time to let go of the past and move on
