Slouch
Slow Death Dreams


There's people living their entire existence around a fat dead singer
People phone radio stations to argue their tastes
I imagine existence would be less painful squatting in the Far East
Dreams that once shone now lay buried in a derelict mind

First Route Marshall Triad sends the Red Pole into action
Life just squirms on in a circular motion
It's a slow death in Kowloon
There's a dearth of understanding while distant pity falls like swath

Dreams that once shone now lay buried in a derelict mind (x2)

I dream of walking into heroine dens
A battered, mangy owl lost among the ruins
Designer death, multi-story grave architecture
If you haven't the right documents can you breath this air?

Dreams that once shone now lay buried in a derelict mind (x2)

Slumber in the crusty heat
Lick a fly from a dry lip
The cattle have no pockets for wallets
It's not our way of thinking so you'll do this

Dreams that once shone now lay buried in a derelict mind (x6)
