We are all heads floating in a tunnel, For split seconds on ends, our shadows fit perfectly with the holes, In the walls. Let us cheer to the sweet decay in our childish dreams. Turn up the volume and carry on Stuttering, sulking, seducing, Snarking or just swim against the current with all of the baggage of the Morning still crackling through your eyes. Hold onto the rails, and dance across the nightmare of endless consumption Sandwiches upon sandwiches within Sandwiches. We are all shadows in motion To the gods of gravity and brevity Our lives on hold a midst the commotion of gasoline tanks whirring And, the forthcoming shortage of ambition. The war is marching on But who's got time for war, In between the decadence of these slime-y streets? Who's got time for war, When you've got to put the kids To sleep?

Death by Chandelier
We are all heads floating in a tunnel, For split seconds on ends, our shadows fit perfectly with the holes, In the walls. Let us cheer to the sweet decay in our childish dreams. Turn up the volume and carry on Stuttering, sulking, seducing, Snarking or just swim against the current with all of the baggage of the Morning still crackling through your eyes. Hold onto the rails, and dance across the nightmare of endless consumption Sandwiches upon sandwiches within Sandwiches. We are all shadows in motion To the gods of gravity and brevity Our lives on hold a midst the commotion of gasoline tanks whirring And, the forthcoming shortage of ambition. The war is marching on But who's got time for war, In between the decadence of these slime-y streets? Who's got time for war, When you've got to put the kids To sleep?
