Black Shroud

When you're away

I'll stay at your place

And while away these idle days

All sound and safe

When you're away

And I will wait

Sweet like a sheet cake

With tape affixed between my legs

To save your place

While you're away

Black shroud

Low ominous drone

Black shroud

Vague sinister tones

I'll be here when you get home

I'll stay up late

Tongue-kiss your keepsakes

With grease paint streaks across my face

To mark the days

That you're away

But take your time

I'm patient like a landmine

You can't outrun what's left behind

The trace decay

While you're away

Black shroud

Low ominous drone

Black shroud

Vague sinister tones

I'll be here when you get home

And I don't need too much

I know I can be tough to love

But I don't need too much

I get by on breadcrumbs

Black shroud

Low ominous drone

Black shroud

Vague sinister tones

I'll be here when you get home
