The great American mischief had muted our hearts
And our rhythms are met with the inharmonious grunts of electric
guitars.
Its all but too much.
Still nobody out there believes the obscene are reprieved.
Everybody get fed up.
My baby
better get high, Ive got something I need to confess.
The dead mean talking are longing for so much more than simply the
obvious.
Cut us off.
Were suffering, hysterical, lighting flares from the foot of her bed.
Ive been begging you for less
mercy than this.
But the only thing you need to know is that you never wanted to know.
Take it off, take it back or take the cover
because were nearing a nerve.
Death is wasted on the patient, so make haste and head for the wake.
Now the hornets inhabit the
hearts weve abandoned.
We are the gone.
Cast aside clothes like funeral roses, and dance straight through the psalm.
Im dead in
the water.
Dont come here for me.
I was once alive in the deserts eyes on the day it wed the sea.
I drew a chalk outline around
your city.
Hushed the sobs in your halls.
But we both know its a killer, baby he will outrun them all.
There is so much shame in
how little weve gained for so long.
Now the sky is falling.
And youre just repeating every word I say.
You are not listening
close enough.
Its a catastrophe.
You have not been concentrating.
Pay attention there will be an exam.
Build an ark.
Come
bring us back to the ruin.
Drifting out of our heads.
Taped off the sky above your city.
Dusted for prints on the chapel
wall.
But we all know that its a killer, baby I will outrun them all.
