Jacknife Lee - Talons lyrics

[Verse 1] And in the dark it comes for me Malevolent and without form Uprooting trees, destroying cars Cold and relentless with arms outstretched No bolt nor brick nor crucifix Can hold it back I have been wicked I have been arrogant [Chorus] And when it comes it will feel like a kiss, silent and velvet And when it comes it will feel like a kiss And I cannot say I was not warned or was misled When it comes it will feel like a kiss [Verse 2] Awaken from dreams of drunken car crashes You've saddened my friends and claimed all my lovers I try to stand still so it will not see me Its talons rake the side of my face Oh, when did you become such a s*ut? [Chorus] [Bridge] And I did not think I'd catch fire When I held my hand to the flame And I didn't think it would catch up As fast as I could have run Fate came a-knocking When I was looking the other way A new disease came in the post For me today [Outro] And when it comes And when it comes And when it comes And when it comes it will feel like a kiss
