lyrics

You say, I know
You bleed, I show
Marks here, like yours
You speak, I know

Before the sun goes down her touch is slow
Touch is slow, her way to show
She let's me be her gravity
Multiplicate, bathe in brine
Stuff this love alive
High, like devils fly
Scraping earth tonight

You say, I know
You bleed, I show
Marks here, like yours
You speak, I know

And as the sun goes down we play in bed
Play in bed I'm turning red
We will grow old this way
Multiplicate, bathe in brine
Stuff this love alive
High, like sacred signs
What do we mean tonight?

10 millions of trees stripped by wind
I try to settle down but window's in front of me
10 millions of knees, bladed shins
I try to settle her down with the ground thundering

The sun comes up; she is ash
She leaves our bed and she leaves her tracks
I'll learn to see her this way
Through the sheen of cindered trash
She's a smoking hourglass
And I love the sight

10 millions of trees stripped by wind
I try to settle down but window's in front of me
10 millions of knees, bladed shins
I try to settle her down with the ground thundering

You break, you slough
I am, useless stuff
Like all, ash does
You break, I am alone

These guys fuckin' rip it live. It's like Battles/Lightening Bolt vibes, but also really funny and theatrical. Very original, very GOOD. Face of Man
