The Roaches Lyrics by OnceOver

9

2010

Versus the raging, reach of the arms machine
They’re seen awaiting, reconstructing broken things
And in my mirror, a lonely satellite
Longs for fear of, for fear of smoke filled glowing nights

If you want to invoke the sting
Grab the lever and pull the string
With the rain go the roaches
Sunlight torches the worms on the street

And you want to repair the wings
They’re so tired from circling
With the wind goes the motion
Clouds cover emotion, eclipsing the seas

It’s never mentioned, the consolation prize
No good intention, buzzards pecking out your eyes
And in my mirror, a lonely satellite
Longs for fear of, for fear of smoke filled glowing nights

Chorus

I’ll never fall; I’ll never fall for this again
You’re without reason, without knowing regret
Something reeks; reeks from your descent
From the window, the window it’s fragrant

No, I’ll never fall, I’ll never fall for this again
You’re without reason, without knowing regret
I will never fall!
