The Night Accelerates lyrics
**These lyrics are from the dual 7" EP and are correct!!!***
These quills will jolt and penetrate.
Some pass, while others can't relate.
I stood hopelessly myself.
You hate when it gets this close.
And i know the blank look you put on,
like some concertina wire.
In here i try to change my life,
I hit the same wall every time.
The night accelerates,
When you need it most.
I am a satellite,
and a Holy Ghost.
The mind is a battlefield,
but the heart is a surgeon.
And I am between them,
and I am uncertain.
I try to know you but i'm too late,
some guy told you how you're no good.
so now you're gonna prove him right.
We're all trauma all the time.
And i ought to charge you by the hour,
for all the time i think on you.
I caught you plotting my demise,
i thought i ought to help you try.
The night accelerates,
When you need it most.
I am a satellite,
to your Holy Ghost.
Why can't you find me,
I've never been closer.
What if the life you tried to live,
was diametrically opposed
to what everyone agrees
is good enough for most.
And i'm tired of always being right,
and risking everything on you.
You're never there when i get home,
you watch then you turn me off.
The night accelerates,
When you need it most.
I am a color test
in a field of ghosts.
The mind is a battlefield,
but the heart is a surgeon.
And we are between them
and we are uncertain.
