Subbing For Eden - Pinback

Petals falling from the engine

Can you see the number?

Can you trace the name?

Sifting through you trash

A piece of ancient history

A ballad of an old one

Nothing wrong with you

What a numb excuse

Nothing quite so tame

As what you’re finally under

A vengeful darling

Subbing for Eden

And I consume the raging fire

And I can feel the depths of the ocean

And I become consumed by desire

And I swear I thought of you

(A slave to desire

Slam breaks on the soul

Swerved and missed by a hair)

And I swear I thought of you

(A slave to desire

Slam breaks on the soul

Swerved and missed by a hair)

Tumbler

Roll the dice and counter

Strikes a fervent market

Nowhere to complain

Folder reference cache

Zeros, ones and tildes

Cracking velvet nerves

Holes start to come unglued

Nails start getting chewed

Legs are getting bent

Maybe finally understand why you’re out here

Subbing for Eden

And I consume the raging fire

And I can feel the depths of the ocean

And I become consumed by desire

And I swear I thought of you

(A slave to desire

Slam breaks on the soul

Swerved and missed by a hair)

And I swear I thought of you

(A slave to desire

Slam breaks on the soul

Swerved and missed by a hair)
