Do the Invisible

from Waails by Anthony and the Mountain

/

lyrics

Step on my neck, play this new death
Like a bomb through flesh it's a safe bet
Losing blood, pulling bullets from my best guess
Got a body on the table, is it breathing yet?

To scrape the bottom of the pit in your stomach
And wrap your silence in a tomb of promise
Rig the air to dupe your absence
Loss of function, this head's a madness

Cross your heart, let's do the invisible
Trick the crown, excite the unthinkable
I'll self destruct before I've fallen
The riots come quick in this standard of love
Love, love, love, love, love, love, love

Feel a little sick in the letdown
Losing my grip, could you spit me out?
The bells rush in and drag me down
I'm a cold cock in the first round
Repeating myself until I'm violently shrill
Believing my jaw is impossibly still
And I'll play a whore for these empty returns
Because living as numb is the passion I've learned

Cross your heart, let's do the invisible
Trick the crown, excite the unthinkable
I'll self destruct before I've fallen
The riots come quick in this standard of love
Love, love, love, love, love, love, love

Hung too high to see
The sadness in these tendencies
My body dropped and held in vitro
Carved a mark in the new low

Cross your heart, let's do the invisible
Trick the crown, excite the unthinkable
I'll self destruct before I've fallen
The riots come quick in this standard of love
Love, love, love, love, love, love, love
