Tapestry

from Ephemeral by Stephen Shutters

lyrics

I made lust to the Devil
And he wasn't so fine
Yeah, loneliness tends to
Leave all reason behind
Got that college girl tapestry
Tacked up on the wall
And this may be my downfall

There's a feline in the corner
And he's staring me down
Got no eyes in those sockets
God, I'm feeling it now
Where's that Sunday school baptistry
Back when I was small
When I used to hear Your call

We went swimming in a great, big
Puddle of chlorine
Blasting crappy pop tunes
Perverting those mom's youths
Taking artsy photos of
Flower petal mornings
But before all that we
Met inside a starship
Flying through the aisles of
Spark-making silicone
All hyped up on
Caffeinated chocolate chips

So we washed off all those chemicals
We wiped them off each other
Then we drove thirty miles
Just to bathe somewhere else
And we sat like two kids on a
Waterslide with inner-tubes
Singing that song about finding death
Back on rotation now
Rubber rubbing constantly
Carrying the two of us back to that lair
Turn up the volume now
Blasting that R&B
Losing myself in that witch's snare
