SUMMER'S CORPSE BREATH

Summer's corpse breath
Decaying like a useless cigarette
Preaching to the choir
She's a girl with devil's backbone
Unafraid
The deathless death

Summer's corpse breath
Unfolding like a poppy by the bed
Prancing in the crowd
He's a boy with flowers on his crown
Untainted
Innocent smile

Faceless travellers
Staring down the street
Waiting for entertainment
Doused in a cup of wild fantasy
Blood spatters, like
They wanna know some of that magic

They're holding guns in their hands
Retreating from their first defence
They say it's fun, it's harmless
Plead, or don't
Mouth rinsed in hot mess

Summer's corpse breath
Brewing in the town across the edge of land
Quenching in the drought
They amuse themselves with poets and the rest
Is passing

Faceless travellers
Staring down the street
Waiting for entertainment
Doused in a cup of wild fantasy
Blood spatters, like
They wanna know some of that magic

They're holding guns in their hands
Retreating from their first defence
They say it's fun, it's harmless
Plead, or don't
Mouth rinsed in hot mess

They're holding guns in their hands
They're killing sons without intent
They say it's fun, it's harmless
Plead, or don't
Mouth rinsed in hot mess
