Sotheby’s of the Dead Lyrics by Nautics

V: The Curving Cracks of a Concrete Jungle

2016

Alright, alright, alright
[Verse 1]
Hey
I just want to know
Where you're coming from
Where you go
I can't even see the light
So bitch you better get this right
And oh that window
Is shattered like some old bones
Is craggling from beneath the grave
Oh they don't know how to behave
I can see you there
Lookin' with your pretty hair
No time to pretend
That once you were my best friend
The fate
Is coming in
I can hear it coming in
No time to pretend
Once you were my best friend
[Chorus]
And oh
All the Sotheby's in my head
Is always auctioning off the dead
All the memories that I hold
Are always faded to solid gold
[Verse 2]
Oh, you laugh it up
Asking excuses
You crap it up
Oh you're tracking back
Trying to defend
Oh enough
I can't go
Back to the past where time flows
Blacker than the ink that stains our skin
Once you were my best friend
[Chorus]
And oh
All the Sotheby's in my head
Is always auctioning off the dead
Oh the memories that I hold
Are always faded to solid gold
[Outro]
All the Sotheby's in my head
Is always auctioning off the dead
All the memories that I hold
Are always faded to solid gold
All the memories that I made
Are always happening yesterday
All the Sotheby's in my head
Is always auctioning off the dead
