Stationary Launch
02:11
|

This is a stationary launch
Clearance for takeoff
And off the pedestal we go
Our streets are paved with gold
A curtain call, a permafrost
This is a stationary launch
Groomed for disclosure
And through a roiling rage
We come, bred for exotica
One day, star shade
Will be over me
Mundane, ribcage
And a sense of peace
This is a stationary launch
Clearance for takeoff
And off the pedestal we go
Our streets are paved with gold
A curtain call, a permafrost

All Red Eyes
07:48
|

And as the dawn bears witness
With all red eyes
To crimes of passion
Heaven knows not why
Before me, not quite human
The name of love
It is a double
It is in my blood
Beyond my comprehension
Beyond my time
The baby that you carry
Should be mine
And so the dawn awakens
From the archives
A wicked burgundy
To be my bride
I'll be in hell, right
This is the final rite
I'll see all red eyes
Downward arc of their scan

Wellspring

I saw your face
In the final days
Exalted state
In the grip of grace
This charnel map
These pallid hues
How they weigh on you
It's such a shame
Every move you make
You slipped away
And the climate changed
This rose-tinted view
These honeyed words
I saw your face
In the final days
You slipped away
And I took your place
This humdrum style
These old sundowns
If the fates allow
I live, it lives
Love’s final days

Look Daggers
03:00
|

My baby
A bad dream
Aroused from
A sound sleep
I brandish the daggers
My life becomes meat
My baby
A cool breeze
Make believe
We're born free
White with captivity
My life becomes meat
And what about love
And what about it
