Quaint

​The lace on the windowpane is dusted just so

A silent, slow-motion bloom where the light won't go

The porcelain crack in the sink, I count it every night

It’s a perfect, frozen fracture in the perfect, dead white.

Yeah, everything is anchored, everything is still

Just the heavy, sweet, dead air that I’m trying hard to fill.

​[Pre-Chorus - Building Intensity]

​I trace the edge of the memory, right here on your throat

A quiet, silver promise that I never should have wrote.

The silence is a pressure, heavy on my skin

**[Whisper]**

Come closer now, come closer... let me let the darkness in.

​[Chorus - Explosive / Abrasive Sound]

I want to BREAK THE GLASS! Tear down the Quaint!

This perfect little prison—it Starves me! I can't breathe!

It’s all just velvet and violence, sewn into the seams!

Crush the Picture on the mantelpiece! WAKE ME UP from these dead dreams!

Quaint

Quaint

​[Verse 2 - Dreamlike/Melodic Vocals]

​The carpet is patterned deep, I could drown in the weave

I wait for the sound of your key, a comfort I can't believe.

The shadow of the fern plant, it looks just like your hand

A slow, creeping geometry I’ll never understand.

The neighbors wave their perfect waves, their smiles are paper thin

They don't know the ugly friction of the space we're standing in.

​[Bridge - Moody and Seductive]

This calm, it is a lie—a beautiful, low-voltage wire

You touch it when you sleep, and I feed the hidden fire.

The way the light reflects off the dust in the air...

It's just a distraction, I know the ROT is everywhere.

**[Breath/Exhale]**

Tell me again you love the quiet here...

​[Chorus - Explosive / Abrasive Sound]

I want to BREAK THE GLASS! Tear down the Quaint

This perfect little prison—it Starves me! I can't breathe!

It’s all just velvet and violence, sewn into the seams!

Crush the Picture on the mantelpiece! WAKE ME UP from these dead dreams!

Quaint!!

Quaint
