Lusty blush
Stone burning red
In the palm of my hand
I crush razors
I crush roses
I split lilies
With light blind eyes
The light blind revenant
The ravenous bottle
That drinks itself dry
The hole in the cup
That floods spirit and blood
The fermented heart cleaved
Tipping like velvet
And flowing like spleen
The bitter film on the cork
So desperately cleaned
Burning vinegar and metal
Chokes the gut
And clothes the vein
In pitch, gauze, and soot
Light blind revenant
Young throat, and braid in fist
Joint and muscle twist
Blue sugar strands
And trembling hands
That hold back the screams/ held tight at the wrist
The rock
Or the brick
Or the head on the block
A bed rouged with dirt
A bed crawling with lice
Name your price
I eat my death rare
And lay my lust bare
So name your price
I’ll do anything once
I’ll do anything twice
So name your price
Name your price
And I’ll pay with my will
And I’ll pay with my life
Vocals: haunted, and subversive. Guitars: splintered shrieks. Drum machine: grim, unrelenting nausea. Visceral noise, with a hook that gets stuck in in your throat. Just try spitting them out. Stranger Killings
