Velvet Pretensions

[Intro] [Verse 1] Sipping metaphors in a porcelain café, Polished syllables in a disarray, Your vintage prose and your borrowed grace, A monocle stare at the human race. [Chorus] Oh, we’re so profound in our jangling chords, Draped in irony, the chicest of swords, Dance through the static, a curated haze— We’re vinyl souls in a digital phase. [Verse 2] You quote Sartre but you’ve never wept, A minimalist shirt with a maximalist debt, Pixelated dreams in a analog frame, A postmodern waltz with no name. [Chorus] Oh, we’re so profound in our jangling chords, Draped in irony, the chicest of swords, Dance through the static, a curated haze— We’re vinyl souls in a digital phase. [Bridge] The synth waves c***h where the poets pretend, A hollowed-out heart with a highbrow mend, We’re archiving love in a cassetiquette, A pastiche of stars we’ll never get. [Chorus] Oh, we’re so profound in our jangling chords, Draped in irony, the chicest of swords, Dance through the static, a curated haze— We’re vinyl souls in a digital phase. [Outro]
