"The Slow Parts On Death Metal Albums" lyrics
"The Slow Parts On Death Metal Albums"
Jumping out of my skin
This tiny sector can't contain me
Soon up in a flash
Slipping symbols bravely brightening
Go out, I'm not wanted
Stand where the light hits hard
Almost full-grown
Drive home alone and listen to the slow parts
In a new universe
Tryna find the mask that fits me
Shaking the curse
Behaving as the beacons fit me
Denim and leather
Silver strapped to please the die-hards
Let me dance till I die
Turn the volume up high and listen to the slow parts
Alien ships from ancient realms (ships from ancient realms)
Ageless captains at their hands (captains at their hands)
Rage from the sea
Let it begin within
Half-life of my toxins
Difficult to calculate
Stock up on gauze in case of accidents
Try to keep my story straight
Dozens like me
Never quite free, filling out our dance courts
Mark my time on the wall
Answer the call and listen to the slow heart

Can't see nothing as she's staring at the kitchen clock
Feels so bland in the eye of the storm it's a bedroom day
We should switch we should pass ourselves...
The Weakerthans - "One Great City!" Late afternoon, another day is nearly done
A darker grey is breaking through a lighter one
A thousand sharpened elbows in the underground
That hollow hurried sound, feet on polished floor
And in the...
The Microphones - "I Felt Your Shape" I thought I felt your shape but I was wrong
Really all I felt was falsely strong
I held on tight and closed my eyes
It was dumb, I had no sense of your size
It was dumb to hold so tight
Aaah, but...
