lyrics

It’s all that I can do to not float through the ceiling tops,
The bite scar visible on my flesh.
The leather arms grasp my soul with sleep,
Where my guilty mind can rest.

Chorus: Their toy handguns, their thunderous battled-rums,
Wrestle with my heart, wrestle with my heart,
Their black fedoras, their darkish chorus,
Singing out “Your time is now!”

The rhythm of the tires shatters in my back,
My head filled with Elephant Mafias.
Her perfume drifts like a ghost in my mind,
“I love you:” thrust in my esophagus.

I’m falling apart.
