Destroyer Rubies

Dueling cyclones jackknife

They got eyes for your wife and the blood that lives in her heart

Cast myself towards infinity

Trust me, I had my reasons

Had a dress for every season, it was worth it

Pulled into town relatively free of hassle

Secured a room at the castle, it paid for itself

Checked out my surroundings, headed down to Thornton Park

Find your way

Discover that things are dark

Shadowy figures babbling on about typical rural shit

I wave bye to them in a modern way and increase my stay at the dock of the bay

Quiet, Ruby, someones coming

Approach with stealth

Oh, its just your precious American Underground

and it is born of wealth

With not a writer in the lot

Sapphires vie for your attention

Cheap dancers they mean well in their way

But Priest says - "Please, I cant stand my knees And I cant bear her raven tresses caught up in the breeze like that!"

Blessed doctor, do your worst

Cut me open, remove this thirst

Hidden, but near

A series of visions, I wont repeat them here

I wont repeat them here

Typical me, typical me

I gave my cargo to the sea

I gave the water what it always wanted to be

Look to the West!

"Ah, look, its no contest" - Proud Mary said as she lit the fuse

"I wanted you. I wanted your blues"

Your Blues

"All good things must come to an end

The bad ones just go on forever"

Isnt that what I just said?

It is Now and it is Never

It is Now and it is Never

It is Now and it is Never

It is Now and it is Never

Dont worry about her

Shes been known to appreciate the elegance of an empty room

Look, I made you this broom

A predicate warning to the sun -

"This Night advances on..."

The sketchy crowd shows me drawings, theyre alright

An alternately dim and frightful waste

Now come on honey lets go outside

You disrupt the worlds disorder just by virtue of your grace, you know...

I didnt want to go, but leave I must...

As gratifying as this dust was

Please dont wake me from this - my golden slumber -

I am proud to be a part of this number!
