lyrics

INTO THE SUN

IT WAS A SLOW NIGHT AND SOME STOWAWAY OF LOVE WAS ON HIS MIND
SHE SLIPPED UP UNEXPECTED IN CALIFORNIA TIME
SHE WAS PLANTING KISSES AND MARIJUANA SEEDS
HE WAS EATING QUINOA PREACHING SAVE THE TREES
OH HER NAME WAS CLAIRE AND SHE BLEW IN THROUGH THE RING OF THE BUBBLE WAND
THAT CRAZY SENIOR YEAR THAT UNSHAKEABLE BOND
BUT JUST LIKE THE DECADES, DIE AND REEMERGE
SHE ANSWERED A CALL THAT HE HADN’T HEARD
TO BURY IT WHILST IT WAS HOT, AND MOVE ON
TO CARRY ON INTO THE SUN, ON INTO THE SUN…

IT WAS DAWN WHEN HE EMERGED WITH RED RINGS AROUND HIS EYES
A QUIP WAS EVEN DROPPED THAT HE’D SPENT ALL NIGHT GETTING HIGH
VANESSA WAS AN ACTIVIST, WHO FREQUENTED STUDENT BARS
WITH A REPEAL TEE AND SOME TABLET TAKERS, CARRYING GUITARS
SHE WAS BLONDE AND MADE THE ROOM SMELL PUNGEONTLY OF MYRHH
SHE LENT HIM INFINITE JEST, BUT HE NEVER GAVE IT BACK TO HER
BUT JUST LIKE THE EPOCHS, DIE AND REEMERGE
SHE ANSWERED A CALL THAT HE JUST HADN’T HEARD
TO BURY IT WHILST IT WAS COOL, AND MOVE ON
TO CARRY ON INTO THE SUN, ON INTO THE SUN…

ANNIKA WAS OF THIS KIND OF SPECIAL NORDIC STOCK
SHE CAME IN A BURST OF BELLACUS BRONZE AT SOME DO FOR AFTERSHOCK
THERE WAS PEACOCK WALLPAPER AND HER MOUTH TASTED OF SALT
SHE LEAD ALL OF HIS LOVE OUT OF ITS BURIAL VAULT
AND AFTER THEY MADE LOVE SHE’D COO BLUE MOON INTO THE MIRROR
AND WOULD SPONTANEOUSLY GO SHOULDER LENGTH WITH A PAIR OF LOCAL SCISSORS
BUT JUST LIKE EMPIRES, DIE AND REEMERGE
SHE ANSWERED A CALL HE JUST HADN’T HEARD
FROM ANOTHER FELON COMPETING FOR HER COEMPTION
GONE ON INTO THE SUN, ON INTO THE SUN…
