lyrics

You painted my window
So I could see your skull
Sleek like the dayglo pulses of my mensch-stration
And the Über-chill flow of my friends
Reading your smoke signals
'Cause Mary's passin' my way
Want to give you that shotgun again

Sittin' on info
That'll never reach the public
Lest my darker visions force some extraction
From the constant conjugation
Of my people profiles changin'
Based on meditations on L S D

And they just get more beautiful
Yeah they just get more beautiful

It's such a soft glow when the streetlamps sigh
Like when a death bat cuts
Across the quivering purple sky

And it's so fine the way their merits shine
Atop an ocean of wine
That fights the rising tide of oil

We threaded the table legs with our limbs
Crass like the slow inspection
Of my sweet Love
With particular function to match
Seating in slow rhythm
'Cause the scent trails are embedded
Let's hop over the fence
Into the black

Breathing in slow notes
That read colors of fixation
'Cause the camp of good sensation's a lost cause
In this romance crushing city
But the prospects are so pretty
'Least there's pleasure in the honest mistakes

So I'll just spin and spin and fly
I'll spin and lose or win and die

We had a good thing
But the constant sweep
Of evil protocols
Have taken everything to keep

And family who I meet in dreams
Give out the silver touch
To all the artists feeling weak
