lyrics

Up there
those diamonds,
are all alone
for eternity,
all that buzzing
static,
makes my skin disintegrate in the air.
so take me to your house,
to the basement,
where your skins are found.
I’m shaking,
so put me to sleep.


_______________



Here comes the new flesh
starting to mushroom out
the whispers to turn to shouts
now we laughing jay
and i’m glad that you're around
somehow it’s more profound
let’s walk outside
to where cars are blood-cells of the road
tonight


While we are dancing
and the fireworks explode
I start feeling so old.
Now i am crying out for my innocence
to rise
but it’s only loneliness I find.
“come lay in the grass and i’ll listen to you as the night goes past”


Maddie my mother is taking care of me
I’m just an infant,
in a bad dream.
Scott you have gone blind from rolling in the light.


John is pensive,
sitting on the truck,
being the lonely moon
and Jolene you’re coming
to pick me up and
put me in your crystal room
and she was right ,
about her basement where those
skins are found
I’m shaking
so put me to sleep.
