Waltz the Slug Lyrics by Tyler Dettloff

2015

Hell is too hot so send me back North
Where my Banjo won't melt
While I waltz the slug
I sweat as I dug up all my drinking
Now I hear Superior sinking
Hell is too hot but my veins have met concrete hugs:
Sledge hammer slips, jagged entanglement
Lacerations and lament never went together
I pluck my own feathers
In this damn heat
I'm on a nudist bender
Strip songs naked to bare characters witnessing timeless plots
With no settings, but spots like Hell and North
Light the torch, burn a hole to my Heaven
My sins never forgiven
Let it burn 'cause I'm a ghost
I don't sear or roast, splintered in purgatory
Repeating a Northern story:
Chains, blades, and walkway stains
She's adorned the whore, tripped once on the rug
A fall from grace
Into Love
Was chewed up and swallowed up
Carved up and spit out
Without a doubt, money will make them buy it
Money will make them try it
All thousand acres
Just to be gone
Walden had his pond and Kerouac had his lanes
Logging men got madness and fevers
Chompin the bit, tail chasing their own beavers
Wearing trails so thin that the demons reach through
Hell is too hot so send me back North
Where my Banjo won't melt while I waltz the slug
Nobody tells about it but there's a calm after the storm
When the dead beat the drum
And the smoke sings along
And the smoke sings along
The ruins do a slow dance, the floods do a crawl
Procession of the thunder, recession of prayer
Waltz the lightning, spirits fill the air
And the smoke sings along
And the smoke sings along
And the smoke sings along
And the smoke sings along
And the smoke sings along
