lyrics

here comes The Man
with the world in his hand
and nothing in his heart but the receipt
he hears what he likes
and speaks in crisp sound bites
and soon I'll be lying at his feet
there's nothing in his eyes
but the fact that we all die
and the strong drink the blood of the weak

twelve hours more
i'm lying on the floor
the cold rushes down to entomb me
as i start to die
he's somewhere nearby
a vulture waiting to consume me
picked to the bone
and left all alone
my love was just enough to doom me

here comes the dead
his eyes are like lead
he tore out my heart
that his hunger might be fed
a monster in disguise
a mouth full of lies
the salt in my wounds as they bled
but here comes the boy
who was not destroyed
my grave will not be in his bed

This is post-traumatic post-punk. ... more
