2010 - Colossal Yes / The Good Fear Split 7" on Gold Robot
Backbiter Blues
Bring it up to your lips / one fatal sip / pull from the glass on the verge of collapse / bold regrets / harped sympathy
Crawl out on that ledge / follow that tight rope to the end of the line / threaded recourse / swamped delivery
A sorry attempt / in a rush to accept this world of excess / the holy ghost / the vast conspiracy
It's straight and concise / it's a uniform line for the lions of this game / it's drawn from the pit / it's called from the inside
Embroidered kind / so stitch up that armpit and buckle that boot / brace for the breach / let the particles collide
Allegiances drain / the powers are impaired / a wave of disclosure with nothing to spare
Albino shoals / they're pale and they're thin / wheel in the coffin and seal up the lid
Lay down the marble / the absolute gray / engraved for the futures engulfed in the flames
Armories are gone / there's nothing more / the bombers are grounded and there's nothing more
Volunteer to the front / and shed that disguise / these backbiter blues can't be denied....
Comparisons ignored / those efforts are less / so kneel to the fact and kiss that ruby ring / reconcile the authority
