lyrics

We Darken Horses

A necessity
A candle woven in water
A base rate
A discharge
A gentleman’s agreement
A bird of paradise
A foxtrot
A study in carnage
A broken nightmare jammed on repeat
A furtive signal
In the shadow of a stabbing
Asserting virtue
A message from our sponsor
I before U except after he
A premature ejaculation at Orly terminal 5
Sortie
Ausgang
At night you smile like a desert
Rubber bands in your mouth
Playing your platitudes like a jews harp

We darken horses
In our time which is free
A furtive virtue
Never hurt you
Behind the bike sheds
Of Orly
Terminal 5

Could we just slowly erode in this configuration?
A broken nightmare jammed on repeat
I before you.

I am a citizen of death.
And as I blank you in life
Caught between pages of a grimoire thick with design.

A place of infidelity and light
A blood sport, a necessity
A candle woven in water
A bird of paradise, a foxtrot
A study in carnage

We darken horses
In our time which is free
A furtive virtue
Never hurt you
Behind the bike sheds
Of Orly
Terminal 5
