In the horizon behind me I can see my shadow twist
The sun beats on the highway like Mephistopholic fists
The butchered sky calypsodreams, hallucinations cry
Nothing left for company to watch it as it dies, watch it as it dies
Bound I envision the dawn of a place with no sun
She slaughters the stars in shades of heroin
On the headstone beach we laid and watched the angels choke
As blackfire took eternity in streams where death awoke
Demands recoil in vision's snare reviled forevermore
Forever chained to her refrain the suicide she bore, the suicide she bore
Bound I envision the dawn of a place with no sun
She slaughters the stars in shades of heroin
I watch the heaven fire choke upon its bloody brow
Her phantom voice returns to ask me how I love her now
The sun beats on my body like Mephistopholic fists
In the horizon behind me I can see my shadow twist, see my shadow twist
Bound I envision the dawn of a place with no sun
She slaughters the stars in shades of heroin
The sun beats on the highway like Mephistopholic fists
The butchered sky calypsodreams, hallucinations cry
Nothing left for company to watch it as it dies, watch it as it dies
Bound I envision the dawn of a place with no sun
She slaughters the stars in shades of heroin
On the headstone beach we laid and watched the angels choke
As blackfire took eternity in streams where death awoke
Demands recoil in vision's snare reviled forevermore
Forever chained to her refrain the suicide she bore, the suicide she bore
Bound I envision the dawn of a place with no sun
She slaughters the stars in shades of heroin
I watch the heaven fire choke upon its bloody brow
Her phantom voice returns to ask me how I love her now
The sun beats on my body like Mephistopholic fists
In the horizon behind me I can see my shadow twist, see my shadow twist
Bound I envision the dawn of a place with no sun
She slaughters the stars in shades of heroin
