lyrics

Slip and slide honey my slum soul
My reptile belt and protestant shirt
Hungover, half dead, kitchen smiles
Creep and slide across the tiles

The mother tongue licks ragged lips
Words freeze in a frigid grip
Crazy fingers punch the glass
Through this mouth no truth shall pass!

My slum soul

Get a grip on the slippery slope
Slide down as fingers grope
Cut to ribbons, a confetti mist
Just end it all with a flick of the wrist
Imposing order, a code of ink
Broken letters pushed to the brink
Paper spews from endless floors
raining down with no remorse

My slum soul

It's lonesome on the graveyard shift
So watch me drown and get my drift
So drip and dry honey my slum soul
Eat my words and swallow me whole
We have to wait for the siren's calls
We're turning into something that crawls
Keep your head down while standing tall
We have to wait for the tyrant's fall
