lyrics

Lucifer’s Glory

Spare me the story of Lucifer’s glory
Swore he was soaring as he fell down the stairs
In an Eden of garters, he wrote to his father

Said can you tell me what I’m down here for?
Said can you hear me under your floor
when all I want is to fall some more?

In the concrete streets he whispers discreet,
Dance with me if you like
It’s the kinda step you just don’t forget

I don’t want to be right if it’s right with them
I don’t want to be born if it’s born again
I just want to drink ’til the world don’t spin

Do I remember you right?
Smoking in the shadows ‘neath the lavender light 
Looking pretty proud that you lost a fight
Do I remember you right?

Do I remember you still?
You said do what you want, but I want what you will
When the thrill is gone, was the thrill so wrong? 
Do I remember you still?

So don’t tell me how love’s supposed to be
I’ve seen June brides in the fall
For a second then I coulda sworn heaven 

Was catching your light like a long dead star
Was wrapping a tree with a Japanese car
On the lips of abyss and a step too far

Do I remember you right?
With your oxblood stride, lazy and light 
swaying in the grays of the dying night
Do I remember you right?

Do I remember you still?
You said the flowers I brought should be alive still
Well maybe the beauty is they never will
Do I remember you still?

So don’t tell me now what this son’s become
A taste was all I did need
to know and then I knew too well

The hint of ash in my naked mouth
That one look back when you’d been cast out
It’s the kind of loss you don’t live without

Do I remember you right?
With a tender desire and your jaw clenched tight
You were singing to the crows when you’re out of sight
Do I remember you right?

Do I remember you still?
Kicking me the scraps when you had your fill
and leaving me with more and less than the bill
Do I remember you still?
