We Are the Shiveries

from The Ides of Spring by Luna Moth

/

lyrics

Close down your colored doors and sing me to your misty moors and follow all the flaws that cause a plague of frogs to flood the floor.
My hovercraft was sore from all the times we hit the floor, but since I got it fixed I thought the shocks were hot and sent for more.
My heart was aching for a masochistic metaphor before the break began to shake and making all my bones to sawdust from the dusky darkling scars across the scarlet sky where Venus (Aphrodite) writes her lovely lines to save us all.

Cut the catapult lines (your tongue). Your words have hurled me to the bruise-colored sky. Nighttime's coming along (just fine). We're gonna fake it till the break of dawn.

Cut the parachute lines (your tongue) your words have sent me spiralling to the ground. No one's ever arrived (just fine). My body's shattered like a Saturday night.

We are the Shiveries. We've come to climb your apple trees and balance on the fence along the pond where we caught dragonflies.
We are the Shiveries. We've come to kill your family with molotov philosophies and songs that make your mothers cry.
