Lyrics Plunge of the Dagger - David Thomas Broughton

Plunge of the Dagger

Such a token is a rather brittle device
To say «I won’t take you of my sight»
I recognise all that I cannot provide
Worthless whimsy if you like
And protectionism is hard to pull off
We are at risk every moment of being taken
It all ends with the plunge of the dagger
There are waves of content that crash ashore
And a simplicity that is blackness
Creeps over all
