Lyrics
You should have been softer,
More tender, more weak,
But you cut through the silence,
You struck where I bleed.
Your smile was a weapon,
Your voice was the flame,
I’m falling through shadows,
And calling your name.
The night holds the echo,
The wound still remains,
I shiver in darkness,
Enchained by the pain.
You should have been softer,
A whisper, not fire,
But you shattered my spirit,
And fed my desire.
The idea#
The complaint is also the attraction: you should have been softer, more tender, more weak—but you cut, struck where I bleed, smiled like a weapon, spoke like flame. Falling through shadows, still calling the name; the wound remains; desire is fed by the shattering.
Dark uplifting trance can hold that double bind—pain and pull in the same night. Enchainment by ache is not quite victimhood and not quite romance; it is the admission that fire was wanted even while the whisper was begged for. Softness denied becomes the whole weather of the song.
