lyrics

Yes!
Your honor I was there, it's not that simple
I was told you're supposed to bring a friend
And I've always been a bit slow

I knew I'd have to wait a while
But I was dosing it low
Far from a rank and file
Dusk is a lonely host
Do you even believe me?
I manufactured the ire
I drew blood, I burned their own

To recall every detail that evening is far too great a task
I was painting a portrait that brought me close to God, at least I thought of one
As the canopy filtered the light, every limb was alive and it groaned in the night
With a vicious intent, and I'll tell you my friends, to survive was to burn, so I torched it and ran
It was seriously the most fucked up thing that happened all week

I'm still keeping up
Caps and stems in gut

I knew I'd have to wait a while
But I was dosing it low
Far from a rank and file
Dusk is a lonely host
Do you even believe me?
I manufactured the ire
I drew blood, I burned their own

Fuck; cleaned my desk and now I'm walking free, and thought the boughs don't bend so much, I see their knees
Fuck; the hammer fell, instead of hopping bars, I'll call them my front door and count with tallied scars
Fuck; I forged a link with ashes in the sky, and when I broke the ice he just said "sempre fi"
Fuck; in coming out, there was a proper theme, in place of soft pitched sophistry
