a dog with shining eyes and smiling teeth
finds a bone and buries it
a boy beset by rules becomes a beast
wait til he’s grown and marry him
don’t cross that man, his love is lost
but he waits for the night to react to it
and see her silhouetted to her bones
=
left too long, grown too old
a body turned to stone
lead and tin, razed to coals
and made to solid gold
=
I need a stolen heart to bring me relief
a life’s evil deeds to rail against
a safe place to start, a map we can read
or lines so our feet can follow them
a fever to cut the cord suspending our tastes
from being to blame for our actions is
what we need by couldn’t know-oh

The album is very good overall, hate to pick just one song, could easily have gone with Float The Flood or Jolt The Amplifier. For the uninitiated, their music seems influenced by Sleater/Kinney and Throwing Muses. Having seen them live recently, got a glimpse of some new material, definitely looking forward to more from them in the years to come :) pepc72
