Black Wax

Those L.E.Ds throw their glow to the potholed ground
Snap shut as they peer out from a collar
He's wearing your lipstick
And drinking from your glass
Inside there's a drill shot
And buzz through the bathroom wall
Taste it from the telephone hear it in the siren wail
Write your name
In cellophane strips,
Across contours of your bloodied mouth

See a distraction, Over the black wax
Every movement, highlights in yellow
See a distraction, Over the black wax
Every movement, highlights in yellow

From kinky buses to rickets ladders
For a thousand foot tunnel and a world underground
Step out from your heavy breath crouch
Breaking to the point pleased to meet you

Take everything she's got
And wrap it in plastic, wrap it in plastic
Take everything she's got
And wrap it in plastic, wrap it in plastic

Encase it in song and take her ...

See a distraction over the black wax
Every movement, highlights in yellow
See a distraction over the black wax
Every movement, highlights in yellow

I can see a distraction
That mounts this paramount task
And its said with such sadness
That the thrill is sealed in black wax

This ride, so far,
Came and went, here we are,
When they find you, so far
It'll take a miracle, here we are
(repeat)

Here we are, here we are
Here we are
