about

2 - Shot Down at a Party [Argument with a Ghost] Dropping in at a college party en route to the underworld. You will meet my cousin and, for the first time, the one I once loved. But we will become lost or abandoned and left to wander the grounds as the sky flashes green above us and a tornado siren screams from just past the pizza parlor, where they flip pies and continue acting as if nothing is happening. Returning to the party innocent as flies both of us with long hair and cups of beer making transcendental small talk with weird sorority girls until a thick crew cut beefcake tumbles through the crowd and, shattering china as you’re pushed back against the glass, growls with hot breath like his face is a gun: “We don’t like hippies here.”

lyrics

Put the gun in your mouth
And then we’ll start talking
There was never a chance
This was gonna go your way
Some people are saints
Some are absolute monsters
But we all walk the edge
Of that shiny razor blade
I will be coming back for you.
There is no place to hide
So I might as well keep on
Rolling right along
That’s what I tell myself when the going gets tough
If it doesn’t hurt
Then you’re just not doing it right
That’s some terrible advice
A terrible metaphor for life
I will be coming back for you.
She blew off your head
And then danced on the carpet
I was behind the curtain
I saw the whole thing clear as day
The dance of the snakes
The dance of the tyrants
The dance of the lamb
Pulling their chariot of flames
I will be coming back for you.
A radio played as I ran away
From the place you lay
From the scene you made
A voice on the AM faded out and then
Faded in again whispered amen.
When the smoke finally clears
And the party’s finally over
I return to the room
To claim what I can claim
But you have disappeared
And in your place is just a pile
Of loose leaf papers
Thoughts you’d had along the way
I will be coming back for you.
I will be coming back for you.
I will be coming back for you.
