The Knife Thrower Lyrics - Mirah

When you find the one you want 

You summon them in, you blush, you flaunt 

Such consummate lips betray your thoughts 

To so gaily inspire a lark 

You say this is a game so take your place 

Then you set the mask upon your face 

My silhouette in the air you trace 

And the dagger performs with a start 

This is the way we represent 

Desire displays impermanence 

Discover you now the inference 

Of the lesson i wish to impart 

And when the nimbus groans with thunder 

Think of the clothes all cast assunder 

Fragrant, the rose is filled with wonder 

All that is left of my heart 

This is the way we represent 

Desire displays impermanence 

Discover you now the inference 

Of the lesson i wish to impart 

And when the nimbus groans with thunder 

Think of the clothes all cast assunder 

Fragrant, the rose is filled with wonder 

All that is left of my heart
