Satan in the Wait

That bastard had a head like a matchstick Face like he was sucking concrete through a straw Some faces not even a mother can love The spit and spatter of broken glass from above "There's a tombstone where your headboard used to be" They tell him every night before sleep Every night before he dreams big and comes complete He sees himself floating high above the certainty of his feet Sees some gutless worm seeking a free ride inside the stomach of a whale He can live without air for several days, he says He says he knows things, this man, he says He says he wouldn't wait for the light or the dark to fade So you'll want to move for the mouths of the damned elite Their bodies are open Their channels are open This world is opening up, up, up, up! "Yeah, I'm good for whatever", The other smiles convinced Tell me what's best and when, I'll save the date I'll set the tone, I'll wander in my sleep They each raise a glass and clang "Here's to what will Here's to the sharpened pencil Splitting the cast from the skin Curing the itch, curling the toes Here's to celebrity and fulfillment Here's to the top of the world Here's to a tired leaning wall Here's to the tragedy to ensue" Their bodies are open Their channels are open This world is opening up, up, up! Their bodies are open Their channels are open This world is opening up, up, up, up, up!
