lyrics

The black lights are spilling all their secrets again
Like the color of mopped blood, the color of sin
There is no truth but it's in the flies
It's in the broken teeth, and the tears from her eyes
Particle perceptions, rot and decay
You can look at the horror in the DNA
But when all that flesh starts turning grey, well
Come what may.
Matter Spatter
Prowling in the dark yeah, hands in his pockets
Wearing sunglasses but there's nothing in the sockets
Pissing down rain on the freezing dock yeah it's
Time to unhinge that jaw.
Long black gloves and a tongue to match it
He lights a cigarette with fingertip matches
He's looking for the nest yeah, itches for scratching
And he chops up the young one with teeth like hatchets
Matter Spatter
Chewing on a bible page to black his tongue, he winks at a rat while he's loading his gun
Sucking down lies in the ink make's him hungry
An old world god to a modern day junkie.
He speaks to the sea when he spits out the ink, and it mixes with blood in the kitchen sink.
The sea spits back, says "Jack where you been? Our time is up, let's begin the end."

Lipstick to nail grime to dog sick and street slime
Hair slick and petty crime, fingerprints on dirty dimes
Gun powder, face powder, discharge (say it louder)
Blood, Bile, Blood, Bile, Blood, Bile

Matter spatter.
