Garrotte lyrics

Artist  : Less 
Song : Garrotte
 


god is missing
two fingers
and won't
say
how it happened

smoke curls above
like the hair of
the most beautiful ghost i've
never seen
smell paint burning, dead fish
warming
misfiring my wiring

garrotte
copper
wire wrapped tight
bent in two
in
pain

a fly carves lines around her
a
slot car spinning out of control
in
arabic polygonal circuits
with the trigger
down

today is another day that i'll
forget
walk around in a daze again
drinking
from the neck of the wolf
and dream twitching
of safety

i awake
when the earth
heaves
crudely nailed
in assent

and
she brings me the things i need
a stack of
books up to the sky
walks blinking blind into
the dark
demanding to medicate me
