FRAGMENT 2872

You walk in with a storm in your coat
A perfect line in a shattered note
Your eyes say run your hands say stay
Like a clean white room in a flood of gray

I lean in close you lean away
Then you pull me back like a chessboard play
One step wild one step still
You bend the night to your will

And I can feel it turning
Under my skin under my skin
Like a match in the dark
Like a lock giving in

The absolute synthesis of chaos and order
(chaos and order)
The absolute synthesis of chaos and order
You break me right
You make me whole

The absolute synthesis of chaos and order
(chaos and order)
The absolute synthesis of chaos and order
One sharp line
One fevered soul

You leave your marks on the table edge
A glass ring cut in a paper pledge
You count the beats with a steady hand
Then spin me loose like you understand

I've seen the drift I've seen the cold
But you turn the wreck into something gold
All my cracks start humming low
When you say my name and don't let go

And I can feel it turning
Under my skin under my skin
Like a spark in a wire
Like a door opening

The absolute synthesis of chaos and order
(chaos and order)
The absolute synthesis of chaos and order
You break me right
You make me whole

The absolute synthesis of chaos and order
(chaos and order)
The absolute synthesis of chaos and order
One sharp line
One fevered soul

Let it shake
Let it settle
Let it burn
Let it nestle

If you move
I move with you
If you split
I split in two

The absolute synthesis of chaos and order
(chaos and order)
The absolute synthesis of chaos and order
You break me right
You make me whole

The absolute synthesis of chaos and order
(chaos and order)
The absolute synthesis of chaos and order
One sharp line
One fevered soul
