she laid her head
on my best
while the sun burned
down the west
there's one thing we still got
its one last dance in this parking lot
oh yeah i got a hear of darkness
and she woke up
into the fire
and the flames kept
growing higher
satan would laugh at her screams
then she woke up from her dream
god damn its so very hot
supposed to come rain and its not
oh yeah, here come the painbirds
spiral down those hateful dears
between our skins and burning spheres
i could look at your face for a thousand years
its like a civil war of pain and of cheer
and if you was a horse i could help you with your chains
i could ride you through the fields by your fiery mane
may your shade be sweet
and float upon the lakes
where the sun will be made of honey
i grab diamonds write you a poem
cause no one here can save you
shes returning to the earth but one day she'll be silver
stars are dying in my chest until i see you again
she was born with the wings of a hawk where she combs her hair with blood
about
recorded one take with an amp and microphone.
