lyrics

PUTTING ON THE ARDOR

Down in some basement,
They wrapped your mouth with expensive duct tape, and kissed the space where
your lips would have been
under the silver.
A party watching us decay when we were younger.

Masquerade useless
Couldn’t breathe through it
While the carnivores are playing cute and clueless
Out on the island, blissfully finding
That these memories come back without me trying.

A beating albatross, amazing, you were flying
Watching tiny submarines sink (in)to your sun.

Across a major electric fence I watch a beast get burdened by someone’s yearning.
And on this planet, I am distracted by the kind of happiness that delays action.
Who wants to focus when you are holding a bouquet, a cataract-colored explosion?
Do we go mining? Search for the diamond?
Tunnel through the pretty mountains we’ve been climbing?

A beating albatross, amazing, you were flying.
Gonna fade, I’m gonna fall into the sun.

The boxer is elated, and rarely celebrated for succeeding in the act of hanging on.
Stumbling and stupid, searching for the blueprint.
Seems like everybody took your song.
Yeah, you thought you had a chance but you were wrong.

Now you’re a boxer, and you’re putting on the ardor.
Yeah, you’re a boxer, and you’re putting on the ardor.
