Nothing - a short history of decay
'a short history of decay' is the Philadelphia band's most personal and most structurally ambitious work.
Yard Act
Lyrics
Constant state of degeneration Lasting cruelties of wish The dangers of the subtle Sparkling through Burning at the stake Laughing at the flames
Those who live are living off the dead Fluently in our decadence
Putrid instincts satisfying Binging vampiric empiricist Dissimulated symptoms Shining through In phase or anti-phase Burning at the stake Laughing at the flames
Those who live are living off the dead Fluently in our decadence Those who live are living off the dead Fluently in our decadence
Poetry, it petrifies me Tying me in knots The poetry, it petrifies me Tying me in nots Burning at the stake Laughing at the flames
