-------------------------------------
I see the numbers this year
another live fantasy
another romantic is dead
so this is just mimicry
-------------------------------------
What does this feeling mean
like my lover is calling me
like another has fallen for me
like a lover that's fallen apart
--------------------------------------
I saw the venues decay
stirring in ecstasy
another romantic indebted
to cult efficiency
--------------------------------------
How long can we stave the sea
I'll be your devotee
--------------------------------------
Entombed your gestures were clear
to simp for some ashen figures
to pimp every sedative joy
and throw it to Casterbridge
---------------------------------------
What does this feeling mean
like my lover is calling me
like another has fallen for me
like a lover that's fallen apart
---------------------------------------
I spent the last six months climbing
through my own faults for a dime of
history, inner privacy, rising anachrony
something to line tbe coffin and
something to cut the boredom
beyond this reductive creed
--------------------------------------
I'll be your devotee
