Long

Shame This Darkness

Frequencies sublime

Make the familiar strange

Departures vanished

Departures maimed

Under the sodium lamp

I can't tell if you're still wasted


The sacred geometry

Of this backcountry road

Please Evangelista tell me all that you know

Please Evangelista don't confuse me

For someone whose stranded


Though it is our likeness

Though it is our harness

Just this once we're gonna

Shame the darkness

Just this once we'll

Contort the night


I'm not the triggerman

I'm not the bagman

I'm just the janitor

Who comes in on weekends

Leaving no stone unturned

To maintain the illusion


people that don't care

people that don't try

people that don't care

that they tried next to nothin'

There are no grand narratives left

For us to abandon


Refrain


The wet salt of morning

Makes dead roosters crow

A pale faced sun once mistaken for hope

I know I don't scare you

When I look at you

Like a madman


When do the sleep sharks wake?

Do tell me

Slow to the draw

While the mayhem's just beginning.
