Alas Lyrics

Spring is in the air, aroma

Blood is also there, blastoma

Call everything by its right name

In cahoots over and under the blood stain

Suffice to say, we bite like cannibals

Bearing teeth, unhinging mandibles

For all our knowledge we still don't understand

Ghost riding or leaning on a kickstand

Strife with each other is against You, rebellion

What You've made one we've made two, like hellions

There is a fire that comes from the tongue

And one that touches the lips

And if the latter, then, alas!

An Alliance between the ships

No hands on my bicycle

Holding steady turning my kaleidoscope

Sticks with no bend are easily snapped

You don't get the right place with the wrong map

I hide in You from me, You're my house

Can't hide what's in me from You, it comes out

I dirtied Your clothes, You cleaned mine

Still sinful, yet justified at the same time

There was a movie filmed by my house

There was a man killed for my spouse

There was a dog buried where the kids play

There was quiet shadow there for the kid's sake

Suffice to say, we bite like cannibals

Bearing teeth, unhinging mandibles

For all our knowledge we still don't understand

Ghost riding or leaning on the kickstand

No hands on my bicycle

Holding steady turning my kaleidoscope

Sticks with no bend are easily snapped

You don't get the right place with the wrong map
