Noctourniquet

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Made my bed in drought of barrel I haven't shot this thing in years Do you think I'll fold? Calloused hands of detriment From a crossbow flinch of gaspin' air Do you think I'll… [Chorus] Solomon, don't fall apart The words have made a perfect burden Solomon, your hollow heart A nomadic void of halcyon youth [Verse 2] Prenatal at the hips where we once joined Severed by the scalpel when we were young Do you think I'll fold? Held under the water in a breathless trough Buried in the plot of your front steps Do you think I'll fold? Incinerate the faith that you were taught Incinerate your crone of useless flesh Do you think I'll [Chorus] Solomon, don't fall apart The words have made a perfect burden Solomon, your hollow heart A nomadic void of halcyon youth Solomon, don't fall apart The words have made a perfect burden Solomon, your hollow heart A nomadic void of halcyon youth [Bridge] And in this life you long to flee You can stop the rain from falling Tie it on in your mind It's your Noctourniquet And in your file will it read That you caved it to the night? Tie it on in your mind It's your Noctourniquet [Verse 3] Made my bed in drought of barrel I haven't shot this thing in years Do you think I'll fold? Bucolic hymns that frolic on your hissing tongue The rivalry of siblings cut from saffron cloth Do you think I'll fold? I'll reach right through the pavement with the shortest straw Never a dull blade in your mother's drawer Do you think I'll fold? Place it in the thirst of her endless flask The iridescent poison will quench foreboding Do you think that [Chorus] Solomon, don't fall apart The words have made a perfect burden Solomon, your hollow heart A nomadic void of halcyon youth Solomon, don't fall apart The words have made a perfect burden Solomon, your hollow heart No matter what it takes, no matter what it takes for you
