Voracious Appetites

from Songs No One Asked For by Mike Costaney

/

lyrics

Oh, look at the new stuff much better than the old ones
When our skin is slack over our pack of marrow we’ll join them
The crematory’s up front fee, a deal on QVC
The coroners come and lug us away and soluble ash we’ll be
Figuring out a signal of doubt
The satellite repeats
Singling out every ounce
Ingenuine speech
The eyes are pecked of the crusader
The fault, none of the birds’
The welder soldering cages
The fault, none of the work

We all want something new to talk about
Telling off something or somebody to blame
Voracious appetites leading us to our demise
Fill us up at any price, weak until we’re feeling this way
Is this all really what we wanted now
Petrified, sitting on the rock we became
Voracious appetites calling out into the night
Lonely in our action, looking back thinking we needed to stay

Don’t wanna get close to me
You don’t wanna get close to me
You don’t wanna get close to me
You don’t wanna get

I know what we don’t say
I look at more than your face
See a carbon-based body walk into a room
and not know its name
I feel that we feel the same
Laugh until it goes away
Agreement to disagree until we’re in the ground
Comprised of the same things
Love and loss til it caves in
Candles lit in the basement
Pentagram on the eastern wall
Until the demon starts speaking
Promising it’ll be easy, trace the sigil it leaves me
Write a song in obsidian blood
That drips slow from the ceiling

We all want something new to talk about
Telling off something or somebody to blame
Voracious appetites leading us to our demise
Fill us up at any price, weak until we’re feeling this way
Is this all really what we wanted now
Petrified, sitting on the rock we became
Voracious appetites calling out into the night
Lonely in our action, looking back thinking we needed to stay

Don’t wanna get close to me
You don’t wanna get close to me
You don’t wanna get close to me
You don’t wanna get
