Traction / The 19th

from Quartered by Hello Whirled

/

lyrics

land speed falling on the runway
wrinkles slide with traction
fired by employing heads
martyrs for the faction
cooler beds prevail over warm ones
surreal but to the focus groups
the charts line up
logicians on their knees

basted in Ancient Greece
the thoughts gain traction

all these seeds left planted but unwatered
never blooming, always looming
dry season is nigh as the clouds lie
will the blinds close before the trees get high?

wake up in the nursery
eyes draw cursory winks at the climbing minks
face planted on the windowsill
not sure why it ate the pill

sisters jailed in the cemetery, crying
lens cap on and the verdict's wrong, he's lying
gas mask cut in half sits slowly heating
grabbed the sisters' glowing hearts still beating
