Yellow And Black by Battle of Mice Lyrics

A clown for every glass that’s raised
The magic hour growing dim
A smile in broken grass bright green
By teethless promises that mouthed
"They never made it home"

Grateful skin glares out from hymns
The chiming clocks remark despair
Desire turns on
Peppers the air

Speak this name
In solid glass
(???) that so desperately
Is coming home
And every bite
Will (???)
Shudder, surprise them
(???)

Oh (???)
Hatchet in hand
Slumping back so
Such a closeness to Abraham
(???) of wings of black
(???)
With thick black bands
The son
That helpless lamb
A rest of (???)

Heavying limbs on well-wishing eyes
Curtains close, hiding empty eyes
The humpback kerns
Worried dark stains on salt
Jagged claws

Consuming hours from light to dark
Take me in smiles from

King-sized jaws
While ivory jacks of jaundiced frame
They bend and hang
They bend and hang to

Speak of thy name
(???)
They drudge and drag
Dead filet mignon

Visions contain them
Of making it home
Can't help (???)
(???)

Heavying limbs on well-wishing eyes
Curtains close, hiding empty eyes
The humpback kerns
Worried dark stains on dark
Jagged claws

So speak His name and
(???)
You're on your own

Your own
