Bathsalt Jesus

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Closer is the last wave and far away from here
Halloween costumed and dead tsunamical
A twilight of your idols; a midnight of your sun
Insufferable as the company of one

Seriously are you kidding me?
Starring in your own no one show
Instagrammed like a jellyfish hash-tagged with #noSpine

Colder than a dark star and frozen into space
All your motivation an accoutrement at best
Bedizen me with Snooki like lobster in a sauce
Alive when you kill it off the planet earth

At minute number seventeen
I stopped my own cold heart
I closed my eyes and walked out of the summertime

Over, like these movie credits shot out into space
All the extras' names are written on your face
All the characters you always got to play
(They perished deus ex machina: in a botox hurricane)

I was born to die just to save the human race
I was born to die just so you could eat my face
I was born to die just to save the human race
I was born to die just so you could eat my face

hey Saeed!! wanted to thank you and also thank you for comments on youTube! we pulled that version down to put up official version ( here

) so I didn't want you to be offended in any way as youtube doesn't allow one to swap out videos and keep same URL like Vimeo etc... so your kind comment is gone too hence this post of gratitude

love odd time sigs!!! also all guitars here are tuned to DADGAD / hope Jimmy Page approves lol

thanks again bro you rock!

Hello
Not my favorite musik style but there are some very good lyric lines and the guitar is well played. Nice guitar solo.The vocals are indeed a bit to much behind the instruments as STC wrote.
Regards Alexander

hey thanks Alexander!! ya I hear what you're saying - but i kinda like the vox ducked back a bit. also the more i think of it since it's a social satire song maybe the lyrics might be too much for some more conservative ears so best to just hum along to the melody ;p
