Double Clutch

Lyrics

[Verse 1] See the liar nurse the lie And watch it flower where truces die With such assurance, like a mother's arm So far from honesty and safe from harm [Chorus] And how you test your nerve Against the windfall that could blow your bones away [Verse 2] To sulking sultans and cow-eyed kings You are your downfall, your tattered wings For there's glory in the furrowed brow And the love of ruin will show you how [Chorus] And how you test your nerve Against the windfall that could blow your bones away And it takes a toll and leaves its stain But it's wandering out When you're lost you will never stray [Verse 3] The devil never strikes as familiar Affection's like a snakebite on a winter's day There's night time skills in every song you play For your own [Verse 4] Melting bliss from a Dixie cup A yearling's lust turns a vagary crutch Songs and woe on a bride's deaf ear She'll wear your ring while she cokes the mirror [Chorus] And how you test your nerve Against the windfall that could blow your bones away And it takes a toll and leaves a stain But it's wandering out When you're lost you will never stray And how you test your nerve Against the windfall that could blow your bones away And it takes a toll and leaves its stain But it's wandering out When you're lost you will never stray [Outro] Never stray You will never stray You will never stray
