Amphibian Days lyrics

[Verse 1]
In the pen with the mastiffs
Bred to fight rats in the bowels of the arena
I received a kiss without promise
That produced deformities of happiness
The laughter there is viscous
It leaves a residue down the legs of the chairs
Since you lost the will to hear, they
Get your attention grabbing fistfuls of your hair

[Chorus]
These amphibian days they will not heel to you
You can't defy the defining flaw of your generation

[Verse 2]
The heavens vomited the dawn upon us
As we learned how to occupy photographs
She descended a stairway
Composed of silk and flicked her cigarette
As I sweat through my black hex I saw you two climax
In spasms through a frosted window
You both came in electronics, and
Anthemic bursts of unsanitary flames

[Chorus]
These amphibian days they will not heel to you
You can't defy the defining flaw of your generation
[Verse 3]
If this is Tartarus, which of us is Echidna which one Arakiel?
This bast*rd conveyance of extinct emotions
That we know only in our cells
I labor to tempt you out of your cage and into my patrol
Until this vessel lands I have decided
To ignore all impulse control

[Chorus]
These amphibian days they will not heel to you
You can't defy the defining flaw of your generation
