Lyrics

Her silverstrike sympathies
Prospected suddenly
Touched me and turned me
To rubble and jewels
I could not define her
Or bind her in iron
I'd find that my mind
Had been blinded by fools
Who claimed I had nothing to lose
Night found me scrambling
Into her hands again
Masquerades dandily
Undressed our time
She smiled sharkily
Shakily marking me
Prey for the panthers
Of passions unkind
Hissing my name at the moon
Wolves waltzed persuasively
Right in the face of me
Slipped out my sterling
And gave them a show
I sent a shot sky high
Direct into God's eyes
Collecting shed prayers
As they begged me to go
I guess you could call it my cue
Sheriffs suspected me
Doctors neglected me
Quicksilver blood
Had them hoping I'd die
The sun hung like loose teeth
I scribbled on loose leaf
Ancient equations
To balance our lies
She hadn't been paying her dues
