Yellow lions and winter sleep
When the power lines are down for days straight
Your filthy eyes and sugar mouth
Left on the steeple with the shakes
Sea glass wheels
You folded under
Mercury slides along the tiles
Stepford wives and christmas tigers (2x)
Frozen ladders on the phone
Sets you on the other shore
With silverfish along the tiles
Left on the steeple with the shakes
Sea glass wheels
You folded under
Mercury slides along the tiles
Stepford wives and christmas tigers (2x)
