lyrics

let the stars bleed down
fill the four corners of this town
wake all the dead eyed people
make a river of this creek
let the sun dye our skin
with golden dew in the dawn
shoot the clouds down with a kiss
and as the streets begin to shake

we'll run away

drink up the daylight (with our eyes)
as finger silhouttes dance 'cross thighs
the grass at our backs stands to rise
paradise is where you rest
it's the best we can do
and nothing else could really be better than
this moment, our skins pressed against our cores
the earth is rushing beneath your toes


tongues locked forever
so that they'll never tell eachother lies
no matter how much spite lies buried
behind the smiles
we keep them sewn shut to delay our demise
the sun waves hello as the moon waves godbye

the mounting pressure in our hips
we live for this, we live for this
the magnetism of our lips
we live for this, we live for this

"What do you get when folk music gets drunk, and inadvertently confuses Shoegazey Ambient Electronica for it's normal fuck buddy, rock music, booty calls SAE at two in the morning, forgets to wear a condom, and gets SAE pregnant?
You get Radio Wire Empire." - Tramps Upstairs less
