Salo Songtext
von The For Carnation

Grazing the night sky again
Fitting it to the lips
Up in the rooftops
The signal has come
Steadying his sights again
Knowing vision′s end
There is no hatred left
The car pulls up
Scattering they fall
He is listening to the sound of their screams
As he makes his descent
Silence at midday again
Sharing the other's breath
Faces damp
Hid from the sun
Checking the street again
Shadow on the lip
Drawing the pale full
With the blood of their kin


Hands at the door
He is measuring the space
There is someone at the stairs
Sinking her teeth again
Eyes swollen but lit
While the next lines up
Ah, but they share you
They are gracious to no end
She kicks but they hold her legs
Let out into the yard
Palm trees traced
Against the walls you′ve known so well
A single row of chairs
Placed at the foot
Oh, you could not prepare
Dusk falls on each empty seat
And you swing
No will again
No shame again
