lyrics

The boys found a body
Ten teeth and a tail
All oozing and red
All tender and pale

Flooded with maggots
Crawling with flies
And there were holes in her heart
And there were holes in her eyes

It feels really weird
When you’re watching something die
And you can’t look away
But the kids they start to cry

So we left her behind
It was buzzing and bright

And back in the cabins
Our heads all bowed
There was plenty to say
But we didn’t make a sound
Yeah, back in the cabins
Our eyes cast down
There was plenty to say
But we didn’t, no, we didn’t make a sound

Down on the docks
Drunk for the first time
We’re sick of the old folks
And we’re sick of the straight lines

So we’re going in deeper
We’re getting out of the zoo
Oh brave new world!
2002!

It feels like we’ve been sleeping
With our eyes open wide
I wanna kiss your cheek
And I wanna hear you sigh

What you can’t say with words
You can say with your thighs

And back in the cabins
Our heads all bowed
There was plenty to say
But we didn’t make a sound
Yeah, back in the cabins
Our eyes cast down
There was plenty to say
But we didn’t make a sound

There’s a mosquito on your cheek
And I could bite it in my teeth

And taste the blood
On my tongue

It’s not easy being young

We’re sleeping with our eyes open wide

Come with me, baby
You’re the only one who gets me
I’ll show you the bodies
I’ll touch you if you let me

Ezzelini's Dead
by BONNIE TRASH

Possibly my greatest achievement in my time in the Guelph scene is making Sarafina BV break scary-goth-witch-rocker character and smile during a set with my stupid dance moves. Pure, dark, potent. Drunk at the Library
