lyrics

Mountain City yellows they're not on the grounds they're in the wall
this loneliness is so distracting i'm barely missing you at all

will i survive the Easter in this sloughy womb of noxious isolation? no
i can feel the sabers now in my illusionary casket

now your charming little virus is getting all your attention
as i drag my chair up to the window to absorb some solar lashings

it's your saint's name day tomorrow but last year's paper wasps they are not living anymore

why should i be scorned like some catalyst for famines when it's me who's been exiled in apartments?
oh must i always be chaos arpeggiating?

Mountain City yellows i see them glitching through the floor
the minotaur of self abuse can't pick himself up anymore

your last violent freak out was a eulogy to us
i was truly touched that you still cared enough to throw psychotic fits

and now i'm sparring with the no one, the void, the vacuum of conscience
as i mine the rust of my celebrity with snarls and mock laughter

i have the sense that you're wanting me to chase you
but what's the point? we can't be together without starting a row
