Tales from the Crypt
[Verse 1]
So, those tales from the crypt
Were quite the hit out here in the Void
With all us lost boys, had are madness
In your salted grip, just how you designed it
Me, myself, I was hiding
From that sound, time and space breaking down
Just some bone with no heat that needs a pick
Some infinite cognitive dissonance

[Chorus 1]
You go head bunting
Songs down somebody's street
I was head banging
Not playing, just praying to your beat
You go head bunting
Songs down somebody's street
I was head banging
Not playing, just praying to your beat

[Verse 2]
I came white, knuckling down
Those Swedish-American halls
I was just passing
Raw and real to every word, but counterfeit to the law
Caught some kind of contact high
Sent you spinning, angry back to your eggs
Scorching and wild through your blood
Spun that flood and melted your glaciers away
[Chorus 2]
You were out storming
Through my trash for the words you could sing
I was just feeling
Not seeing you hustling me
You were out storming
Through my dirt for the words you could sing
I was just feeling
Not thinking that you were hustling me

[Verse 3]
This glow looking
In my hole, she already knows
Got three wet blankets in the soul, can't wring them out
Can't sympathize with eternity, girl, just go be
Won't say how but the hanged man
Cut himself loose and now he's upside down
Grinding the grains, projecting the pulse
From a distant two-dimensional plane

[Bridge]
It was like what you'd call light pollution
Brother, you know how many spells I've nailed to the floor of the ocean
This was as slippery as a stone from the stream in some suffragate city
Chap you like the wind go missing blow back in praying come on try again try again and then
[Chorus 3]
You come asking questions
Like how many trips have you made to the sun
Right when I'm feeling
Like I'm on my last one
You come asking questions
Like how many trips have I made to the sun
Right when I'm feeling
Like I'm on my last one

[Outro]
I went out storming
Through your past for the words I could sing
You were just feeling, put me in my place full of grace
I'll see you on the sea
