See The Flames Begin To Crawl

I've got pocketfuls of crumpled receipts, just about enough to

Start a fire. i'll watch the past just burn away. put the mic

Stand through the amplifier. put the bass down, bass down, one

Time, snap the neck now. drum set, smash it. kick the kick drum,

One time, kicked in, smashed up, break it, break up.

See the flames begin to crawl, upward. taste the anguish as they

Fall, unheard. hear the record start to skip, unsung. feel the

Weight that sunk the ship, so young.

I've got notebooks full of misshapen words, i'll never speak

Them anymore. ten years from now, you won't know my name. throw

The microphone down on the floor. put the guitar, guitar, one

Time, through the speaker, splintered, broken. throw the horns

Down, one time, horns down, smash them, break them, break up.

The crowds recoil, demand our survival, fists in the air, mouths

Caked with saliva. but you are the one, the spark that was

Spawned, who picks up the pieces, and passes it on.
