Life of Unclean Living

from First Night on Earth by Craig H

/

lyrics

Can I press my cheek up to
All these things
And still remember beauty
Unpossessed and unimpressed
With all my inner workings
Can I pour out venomous
And achieve happiness
Dirty little ghosts
Like stains on skirts too short
I want to stay with you
But you're soulless too

I have held my hands up
In surrender
Just to trick things closer
Trick to get you
Trick to let you
With all my inner workings
Could I be forgiven
A life of unclean living
Oh my gracious host
This is a loving toast
I once thought you true
But you're unclean too

Bless our souls
Us tired soldiers
Playing dirty
Getting older
Aisles of smiles
For our eyes and shoulders
Our once beguiled
Are getting colder

Edmonton, Alberta.
Independent artist.
'Eaworm-ridden electro-pop'
'Dirge pop'
'Music to do drugs and wear tights to'
'woozy, lurching, and impressionistic shards of sound.'

I'm no good at describing my own work, but I do hope you find a way in. They're all doorways.
