lyrics

Intoxicated by the rip and strip one of the heat waves hangs like it should be frozen this time of year holding onto dear life half a century of show-time until experience leaves her bewildered or just wild visions of new designs and gateways of even rhythms easy now this creature wants to take us somewhere if our weight lifts us clear of the traps

It's no easy chain of some meaning out there somewhere numbers in the distance someone waits to be eaten it's not like hostile or horror show just figures in high viz static I doubt they've seen me I just want to catch a look before sundown when every flower with any sense gets away or closes high heels are insane

It's no easy chain spray-paint done fast and close turn me silver or anything flawless semi-precious is good enough who wants to get stolen or locked away across the crater lake birds use this when there's nothing better yeah survivors have the identity to survive and use fairy grips no one'll feel a thing

3 7 10 6 4 1 5 1

It's no easy chain the missing panel beats a reminder my way out as some new recluse writes oriflamme over and over for attention or to somehow fill the silence twice now devil claws hold what's left of some essence of beauty I gave it away it's the sky not the traffic moving fast today
