Lights Are Extinguished Even To Ashes

Lights are extinguished even to ashes Long before we are born Their surfaces can melt like a mercy dream It's a passage to another realm you scorn Where I'm already the dust film Turning neon blue, honey I'm a rainbow, can't you smile for me As I dance for you all wet and see-through. Like a genie in an uncapped bottle unseen Lights turn to ashes even before we're dead Honey, now you've smoked your last rolled fags What the corolla can I do for you? When strong liquor is no longer a health-free hazard Love, what can I do for you? When everything is like a Turner painting prize In an astral-neon haze, what can I do for you? Love, what can I do for you? Girls, they once made me sad and mean Girls, uncurl your painted toes and cry for me My winding sheet is an ultraviolet cloud And that thunder under your breath It's getting dark As it crashes on in on my heart, unheard Honey, I'm a fish out of water, flapping to breathe But now lights are extinguished to ashes Before, even they were born to be And yet, for the first time, I feel free.
