Béton Brut Lyrics by Bent Shapes

Wolves Of Want

0

Full moon rise on the mise-en-scene:
Empty sports fields let off steam
We drink slow, got nowhere to be
We sulk in the glow of the coke machines
A semester's worth of grand gestures
And still you don't notice me
I was content to grow older
But she was bolder--
Holding onto life like
It could dislocate her shoulder
I don't know what they told her
The lines that they sold her
Are enshrined and left to time in some
Guidance counselor's folder
Béton Brut
Deliver us from our untruth
Béton Brut
A spite fortress of empty rooms
Process crude
Austerity measures
Struggle for junk space
With unknown pleasures
For all our feeble attempts to widen the breadth
Between our nascent selves and certain death
We just circled the drain. Didn't make a dent
Already living our lives in past perfect tense
But skirting the lights on deserted streets
Nightcrawling blind and falling free
Like untethered, heat-seeking teenage lobotomies
We searched for the bright spot
In a sickening century
Béton Brut
Held a promise out to you
Béton Brut
Coming soon: charming ruins
Make it new
Recast the mold that made us
We were dying for someone
Who wouldn't try to save us
