Sprawl

She broke into a fit of laughter
Then held my neck and
swallowed my tongue
The sky was red in the
evening after
When I woke up and
left her alone
And I descended through
hills and alleys
And from a shadow that
folded the daylight
A shiny shape
stabbed me in the belly
Then took my money
and left me to die

I had a dream of
mysterious madness
She sang a song
in the ear of someone
She's gathering
cybernetic lovers
She likes to kill
She's so wickedly fun

Right and wrong
are closer bottles
You cannot hit one
without shattering both
Life doesn't come
in single colors
I've always been true
and I've always been wrong
I slipped back through
those hills and alleysI
left my corpse
under coroner's gaze
I've found her lying
beside her new mate
I saw my blood on his
shoes and his face
And from my dream
of mysterious madness
She broke into a fit of laughter

She broke into a fit of laughter
She broke into a fit of laughter
