Short End of the Rope - 2008

The silver in your eyes
Brings down the starlit sky
Down in one big flash
You hear the dead bodies
Hit the ground
You've seen what you have to see
The tables turn
To solve this mystery
We were glistening

As your lungs begin to breath
And as you slowly bleed
So as the hourglass runs out
Our pestilence keeps growing

Angels keep singing
Without a doubt
Into a blackened sky
So tell me princess why your crown is bleeding tears
And after all these years we were singing

Pain for pleasure
I'll write another measure
Of our love
On this shredded paper
Pain for pleasure
I'll write another measure
Of our love
On this shredded paper

Black lights
Cocaine
I see your face again
I hear
Your voice
And we are

Angels keep singing
Without a doubt
Into a blackened sky
So tell me princess why your crown is bleeding tears
And after all these years we were singing

My hands bleed from this red blasphemy
Roses wither on God's
God's death bed
My hands bleed from this red blasphemy
Roses wither on God's
God's death bed

As you bleed angels sing
Close your eyes
As you die
Open eyes
Now you see the light
