Lyrics
A clown for every glass that's raised
The magic hour growing dim
A smile in broken grass bright green
By teethless promises that melt
They never made it home
Grateful skin glares out from hems
The chiming clocks remark despair
Desire turns salt, peppers the air
Speaks his name in solid gold
No weakness so desperate
It's coming home
In every way with plenty time
Show no surprise
There's not a champion that holds you
Oh, shroud the grave
Punch in hand
Smoking mask of flesh and carcass
Felt with right hand
His body broke
Four wings of pain
Tread on old broken emotions
With thick black pain
They fell
And helpless he
Arrests his descent
Pevying lint on well-wishing eyes
Curtains close hiding empty eyes
The humpback curls
Worried dark stains on soft jagged cloth
Consuming hours from light to dark
Take reading smiles from kitsch eyes drawn
While ivory jacks of jaundiced frame
They bend and hang
They bend and hang too
Because I know
A happy hollow
That draws and drags
Takes the weight in gold
He shows himself
Never made it home
His hopeless arms
The victim's just got the only hope
Hope
Hope
Pevying lint on well-wishing eyes
Curtains close hiding empty eyes
The humpback curls
Worried dark stains on dark jagged cloth
So speak his name now
A happy hollow
His body broke
A crest of pain
Yeah
Yeah
