Black Coat - Single

Black Coat 04:58
There’s a black coat hanging in the hall There’s a black coat hanging in the hall There’s a black coat hanging in the hall And it covers up the shadows that are hiding on the wall There’s a black coat hanging in the hall Two doors down from the angels’ bedrooms where no light shines in at all Yeah they’re sleeping, bleeding, scheming, breeding, but never dreaming Of a better way escaping all the prodigals they’re painting No more signs of simplistic redemption This is war and chaos theory theologians never mention With faces glued to text so ancient they never stick As they’re peeling off of things from which they will never admit I do not believe in benevolence, I never found its relevance Excuses for transcendence reflect questionable intelligence The art of high horse riding is blinding in the light Of a self-righteous pariah never caught inside a plight I hear voices, noises that evaluate my choices What’s a boy without a boisterous ego lacking in his coitus? But it’s simple: brittle as a bitter sleeping pillar Walls coaxed with a coat of concrete damned to never reach fulfillment There’s a black coat hanging in the hall There’s a black coat hanging in the hall There’s a black coat hanging in the hall And it covers up the shadows that are hiding on the wall There’s a black coat hanging in the hall Right above the black boots muddied by the weather of the fall Yeah they’re sitting, idle shitty stitching in the breaching Of the soles so slightly worn but beat enough to stop your wearing No more chance to dance off the alabaster balustrade Balancing a chalice off a rapid blasting Batarang Amassed in a glass case rocks would never break through When lies tread crooked waters it is hard to find the straight truth In a vintage aircraft boneyard lies a record player tone arm Never put to use but laid to rest by haters who berate art A stoned teen who never learned Giger appreciation Will get his giggles out on Cartoon Network animation I feel sickly, succumbing to the Grey Man way of living Like an infant screaming teething I am angry, I am seething Could this be the point of the divinest realization? And if so I bid you everyone my finest salutations There’s a black coat hanging in the hall There’s a black coat hanging in the hall There’s a black coat hanging in the hall And it covers up the shadows that are hiding on the wall This was something now it’s nothing And it’s budding slutty touching Ruddy sucking at the blood we spill Like cutting funky drumming From a cruddy record study Dumping trumpet loops to gullies Dummies loving claiming running But they’re gluttons, fucking trust me Plush is stuffed inside your tummies It’s abundantly disgusting In a rush of pumping scum into Unlucky ugly ducklings Chumps are summoning their plumbing Like a trumped Augustus coming To a numbing sense of wonderment And shutting off his humming There’s a black coat hanging in the hall There’s a black coat hanging in the hall There’s a black coat hanging in the hall And it covers up the shadows that are hiding on the wall
