Hot Knives

Lyrics

The wife forgave the mistress for she only entertained
 The pain was gone the instant she cleared her throat to speak her name
 Said, "Both of us must suffer from the same unending ache"
 The world was not of interest, though her days were never dull
 Her bed beneath a crucifix on guests performing miracles
 With the son of God just hanging like a common criminal
 "When I do wrong, I am with God"
 She thought
 "When I feel lost, I am not at all"
 ♪
 So give me black light (give, give me)
 So give me hot knives (deep, clean sleep)
 On a dance floor no one tells time (there is no time)
 So I've made love
 Yeah, I've been fucked
 So what?
 I'm a cartoon
 You're a full moon
 Let's stay up
 She went to see a mystic, who made medicine from rain
 And gave up her existence to feel everything, dream other's dreams
 Bid farewell to her family with one ecstatic wave (please, take care I love you all)
 Out the window
 As the car rolled away
 She just vanished
 Into a thick mist of change
 So let us rejoice (let's rejoice)
 In all this pink noise (out, pink noise)
 An oscillation that we can pinpoint (we're right here)
