Album: Acrobatic Tenement

Initiation

i n i t i a t i o n
follow you home after every show

perforated into tiny fragments
heavy breathing's your new fan club
a john handcock with the safety off
after every show
and how this pedastel fits like glove
such a pity i built no laddter from me
the roots and above
i'll be hacking off
after every show

initiation
there's no restraining order to keep me from you
parting contestants never seem to win

watch you clap your hands by the stage
lend me your ears
just another page
in the book that your friend signed yesterday
when i told you not to bother to holler
your telephone's the one
that helped
me wrap
the cord
around your neck
you know you're beautiful
when you're dead

initiation
there's no restraining order to keep me from you
parting contestants never seem to win
