Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I was a galleon for your raging love
Sail eternity, true
Fell for a singer with a dead-eye drawl
I was right into you
I was right into you
[Verse 2]
Locks and levers in the mind's eye veil
Gliding on an endless sword
Breaking on down, like a criticized clown
This is no place for war
This is no place for war
[Verse 3]
Why are you sleeping in those high-heel shoes?
Where is the logic in that?
Hum an old tune about six deaf rats
Piling right into you
Piling right into you
[Verse 4]
I was a roof dog, I got tagged
I had a micro Corvette
Took my Tuesday tea so cold
I was in the dull jet set
I was in the dull jet set
[Bridge]
Jesse called me into the ring
We were messing with his acid routine
Denim and doorknobs, that was our kink, you know
I was so mezzanined
I was so overwhelmed
I couldn't see you there
And, and the art involved my Jesse
[Verse 5]
I wasn't made to be
Unfazed by all I see
Hazing the frat boys
That was a joke to me
I just laughed as I poked them in the ass with my
Kappa sig brand and they
Knew what it was like to be my little bitches, they were
I like to stroke it, Noel
Totem and tyrants
Ghost of your eyelids
Peaking the way I do
Follow me out of the room
And the spectacle of abrasion
[Outro]
You had nowhere special to go
For reasons I will never know
You were my love vibe, I feel the violence, when
We are entwined, I can't seal it with science, I
Just got to speak it and maybe I'll geek out on your amazing quirks
It was amazing the time that it took
Spent it in the Brass Ring, it was a bar I loved
We were playing darts and living on overtime
Space of the life inside
And soon I was off my head, I was twisted
