A Rusty Glove

Horse The Band


TINKER tinker PLING- DING DING- DING 
my body breaks - the void screams 
weary of hollow metals 
that ring of hollow life 
by hand and by hammer 
i give birth tonight 
metal bend and metal scream 
welding bright the circuit seam 
weary of the hollow spaces 
between the twinkling lights 
i lost something along the way 
and it doesn't feel right 

MAY-BE IM-NOT 
falling apart but falling a lot 
MAY-BE IM-NOT 
completely circuitry but i can't stop 

IM GONNA FALL APART!!! 
IM GONNA FALL APART!!! 

coming close im coming closer 
yet maybe im not 
i can make you a sex machine 
that would be hot 
break my nails and pull my hair 
theres circuit boards everywhere 
how long have i been in here 
this is not my house 

MAY-BE IM-NOT 
falling apart but falling a lot 
MAY-BE IM-NOT 
completely circuitry but i can't stop 

IM NOT A ROBOT BUT IVE GOT A MECHANICAL HAND 
I CAN STEAL THE STARS AND PUT THEM BACK AGAIN 
once upon a time- i had a broken heart 
once upon a time- i just had a heart 
i limped when i was wounded- so i replaced my parts 
once upon a time i had a heart but 
IM NOT A ROBOT BUT IVE GOT A MECHANICAL HAND 
I CAN STEAL THE STARS AND PUT THEM BACK AGAIN 
if i am a machine because my hand made heart 
then why do i dream im a dinosaur tearing sheep apart 

lightning 
fill me up - it tells me where to go 
colors me and changes me 
it withers me to coal 
lightning 
tears me up - leaves me smoldering 
i close my eyes and hear her voice 
framed by vulture wings 

in the wires of my hand- i see my fate 
cold and mechanical- squeaky with hate 
it clicks + whiiirs and im satisfied 
its designed to fill that black hole deep inside 
im turning away from the path of soft skin 
to a path of mechanical sin 
turning away from the warmth of gold 
to an empty machine thats broken and cold 

click click click hollow rooms always consume 
click click click dark and empty like most of the moon 
click click click the things we do in the name of love 
click click click secret machines and a rusty glove 

SLEEP WELL MECHANICAL THING 
YOU WERE FUN FOR AWHILE 
BUT NOW IM GOING GOING GOING 
TO GO 
GET 
GET A BURRITO 
go get a burrito 
go get a burrito....
