Lead single for the EP, "...and the Specter's Pallor"

lyrics

It's hell to die ugly as this

A tightrope walk on a power line
Another roll of six sided die
I take my chance with the passerby
To tear a page from hitchhiker's guide
She looks at me with a wicked eye
A bloated corpse with a mangled spine
She flicks her tongue and I'm paralyzed
Jerk out my thumb and I hitch a ride

I find myself in an alleyway
The gumshoe purrs at the grimy blade
He looks at me from behind the page
A coiled mass having set the stage
So many lives and so many days
The butterfly and eternal gray
Ambiguous and it comforts me
The I.V. drips and I fade away

Nine lives counting suicide
Can't face it all
Blood moon can't wait
To drink it all
