Lyrics
Click a line to jump near it in the song.
He asked what scares you,
then he became it.
He warns you of the thief —
he has copies of your keys.
Here he comes:
the strongman.
Big flags.
Fine print.
New portraits in the stairwells.
The anthem at closing time.
The applause is load-bearing —
when it stops, the absences are loud.
The neighbours memorise the floor.
There he goes:
the strongman,
waving from the balcony,
a list in his pocket.
It begins as a promise.
It ends as the knock.
Your oldest wound gets a uniform
and thinks that it's been heard.
He is never once afraid for you.
He is afraid of you.
Down he goes:
The portraits come down faster
than they ever went up.
They all go down.
So did we.
