Dead Lines

Lyrics:


A sample test at best is nothing less run for more I can't decide
love in the grass is nothing less rather you look me in the eye.
Your face creeping in your caring thankless grin
Immobilize the setting sin
Create the mood that's dark and grim
Aortic. High arctic part.
Mood altered my paradise is lost
Maskover no one left to dock
Hide the trap caution deadline remark
Aortic. Matches my grey skin
Known so long feels like the next of kin.
Aortic. High arctic part
Hide the trap caution deadline remark
A jaded whip rosehip a shallow kiss chauvinistic go look inside
whilst in the back a gold to lead to resurrect whats left to die.
Tainted bait breathes faint tarnish and elevate wipe slate kiss goodbye.
Overuse blank card rendezvous.
Understand bells mourn the tired.
