Bilingual
Drawers of shattered glass
A hollowed bible full of cash
All lipstick stains and shallow breaths in the stink of death
And October know my move
A seven-deuce of different suits
Each time's the same
I go all in with every dime I've saved
But proud I'll stand
For when it's gone
I'll remain
Another line of chalk
Yet I still spin each time I talk
The record plays and I might hear it out
If I could shut my mouth
But I can hear that serpent hiss
As he marks me down for the city of Dis
Well fuck him too
I'll curse the earth until it turns me blue
And when rot
They'll find me bare
In a giftless tomb
I watch the piles of ash
Work their way through the hourglass
In shallow streams they crawl about in a trail of black
And October knows I'm done
When that midnight ink fills through my lungs
And I steal away in panicked haste just to hide my face
'Cause when it's gone
I'll remain
With the stain
Left on my name
