Halfhearted Studies of Occult Metaphysics
Say morbid things
They’re black silk
Fill us with them
The cold began to get to us
Sucking stubble
Sewn-shut eyes that cover blue
You’re a beauty
We’re just dead.
Much more beautiful,
And much more shocking blue
Don’t stray with the lights.
Keep following me around.
It adds to the tragic story
The romanticism of travesty
Just so fun to break
Bring the delicate, dark malt
And fill the hole with salt
Stop thinking you’re alone
You’re not as empty as they say
We know you’re not down and blue.
We should have witnessed it
So we could shout and warn you.
