New York Torch Song

New York Torch Song

The Amazing Devil

Fuck you He Said
Fuck You She Said
Fuck You they said
As they threw their threads from their wedding bed

We’ll talk about this tomorrow

In the backwards of the world
In the wings unfurled twirl
In the upside down frown of the dark
On the tippy toe tin rooftops
In the vodka drama thriftshops
It’s there we’ll make our mark

It starts off like a pin prick
A trick of the light oil slick
Then grows to the size of your hand
Turns you outside in
Cigar burns and scar skin
Ripping bone and nail and gland

But your blood does not bleed red no more
It’s whiter than the Sun burns, its bright with every hum
From within this gaping wound of ours
A new us has begun
A new us has begun
A new us has begun
Can’t we just talk about this
Tomorrow

Oh light me a New York torch my boys
Oh light me a New York torch my boys
Oh watch the fire surprise surprise burn up and up into those skies
Oh light me a New York torch my boys

Tear me up and burn me up and rip me up and leave your
Hand on the wall as you go
Blood’s pouring like martini
Graffiti sweet bikini
Is that what you think of me now no no no

Are you God or devil, ghost dishevelled
Childhood friend or drunken revel
I cannot stop I’m bleeding out for you
You angel heart you monster oh
Some godforsaken prospero
Your feathers and your paws
Your hell for leather applause
You dance on tables, endless labels
Are you cain ‘cos I’m not abel
Your bastard lasting nightbus asking
What’s the everlasting fable

I cannot find the words to keep you
I cannot find the words to keep you

But your blood does not bleed red no more
It’s brighter than the Sun burns, its whiter with every hum
From within this gaping wound of ours
A new us has begun a new us has begun a new us has begun
Can’t we just talk about this
Tomorrow

Oh light me a New York torch my boys
Oh light me a New York torch my boys
Oh watch the fire surprise surprise burn up and up into those skies
Oh light me a New York torch my boys
