Threads of Gloom

[Verse 1] You saunter in with checks upon your brow A vintage error screaming loud somehow That beige illusion doesn’t fool the room Just weaving threads you stupid fool [Chorus] Oh Woven lies in camel black and red A heavy crown upon an empty head It’s not the vibe my dear it’s quite a crime Stuck in a snapshot from another time [Verse 2] The stitching frays beneath the pub light’s glow A synthetic halo for your ego’s show You think you’re distinct but you are just a bore Lost in a wardrobe that’s been here before [Bridge] Patterns don’t hide what the eyes already know A houndstooth heart can’t cover what won’t grow You wear the past like armor but it’s thin The thread unravels while you’re wearing a grin [Chorus] Oh Woven lies in camel black and red A heavy crown upon an empty head It’s not the vibe my dear it’s quite a crime Stuck in a snapshot from another time [Outro] So take your checks and walk out through the door A museum piece we don’t need anymore The fabric fades but the truth will always stay Fashion moves forward but you’re stuck in yesterday
