Lyrics

The shallow holes of a thousand eyes In the knee-deep graves of future survivors The flesh is scare still all children of the past And their aging fingers cast the shadow of death The shadow of death Their razor sharp tongues invite to relax As they slip the skin on your eyelids back Invasive spectators get into the act With roses and candles, silver knives and The summering women Dance with priests from a side road Your vision perspectives They're turning to stone The cavalry slide shows start shooting their load And act one is the end And the show now begins Their razor sharp tongues invite to relax As they slip the skin on your eyelids back Invasive spectators get into the act With roses and candles, silver knives and Red ballet prancers Spin on porcelain backbones A child's mothered cry turns into hilarity Ungracious freeloaders They leave their dead on my doorstep And flowers of doom all bloom in prosperity Their razor sharp tongues invite to relax As they slip the skin on your eyelids back Invasive spectators get into the act With roses and candles, silver knives and spoons Silver knives and spoons Silver knives and Silver knives and spoons The luxuries of past days are The luxuries of our days The luxuries of past days are The luxuries of our days Their razor sharp tongues invite to relax As they slip the skin on your eyelids back Invasive spectators get into the act With roses and candles, silver knives and spoons Silver knives and spoons The shallow holes of a thousand eyes In the knee-deep graves of future survivors The flesh is scare still all children of the past And their aging fingers cast the shadow of death The shadow of death Their razor sharp tongues invite to relax As they slip the skin on your eyelids back Invasive spectators get into the act With roses and candles, silver knives and The summering women Dance with priests from a side road Your vision perspectives They're turning to stone The cavalry slide shows start shooting their load And act one is the end And the show now begins The luxuries of past days are The luxuries of our days The luxuries of past days are The luxuries of our days Their razor sharp tongues invite to relax As they slip the skin on your eyelids back Invasive spectators get into the act With roses and candles, silver knives and spoons Silver knives and spoons
