lyrics

All/grand mal epileptic sex
Auras in your orangeade
Secondhand weathervane
Pedestrian magic

Lore/petrichor
Catch the devil (catch the devil)
Do, in silver dew
Twist the twigs into a trap/step back

Lay her body down/into the sugarcane
The foxes run, the day is done
The day is done
The flowers speak/winter wheat antique
Superimposing oceans
The day is done

Still/roadkill, signposts
Southern in your sigh
Low, I get alone
And suddenly all my thoughts seem worth speaking
