Charisma Lyrics

Over
It just begun
Pull from her
Pull to me
It's everything she wanted
It's happening with ease
Modern Rembrandt line
A peach and black painted charisma
You're so alive
Like a dream I'd catch if I stayed asleep
Magothy days slipped away
I caught a stranger's eye
And what a way
You won me over
And what a way
And what a way
And what a way
And what a way
You won me over
And what a way
And what a way
And what a way
And what a way
You won me over
Keep praising the light
Keep sleeping by numbers
It's everything she wanted
It's all famine or feast now
Making do with bitter sundown
A body that stayed in disarray
Sneaking out of view
I think deep down she always knew
I'd fully give in
She got blood from a stone with grace
Making up for lost living
Wearing that wound
Looks good on you
No better view
I love the new painted charisma
Magothy days slipped away
I caught a stranger's eye
And what a way
You won me over
And what a way
And what a way
And what a way
And what a way
You won me over
And what a way
And what a way
And what a way
And what a way
You won me over

Cover art for Charisma lyrics by Pianos Become The Teeth

In this article, the author briefly goes into detail about the meaning behind this song, and honestly what he said added so much personal appreciation to this song as well.

"Listening to the first half of the album, I can’t help but think about my own growth. Within a year I went from broke college life to living in California, using my degree and working toward my goals. So why do I miss my college days so much?

"I found my answer in the album’s first single, ‘Charisma.’ Walls of guitar envelop you as Kyle Durfey narrates the story of a stranger who swept him off his feet, effortlessly tearing him from his life and habits into something “like a dream I’d catch if I stayed asleep.” He repeatedly describes his “Magothy days” slipping away (for those who aren’t from America’s simultaneously best and worst state, the Magothy is a river near the band’s hometown outside of Baltimore, Maryland). I couldn’t help but see my college friends and regular haunts slipping away with them; even if we needed to move on to grow, we will always miss what we had before."
