lyrics

Suck the sleep from my teeth
Horizon shudder, tremble, sigh
Mattress spasm under me
Watch a new light stain the sky

Walk to the pantry and stand for a day
Stare at labels, plot revenge
Tracing the barcodes, reciting the names
And the names of all their friends

Caroline, quickly now, wind back the tape
Oh
Redact every message and scrub every trace
Oh
Pixelate

A capital man with his hands held aloft
Welcomes me to my new wife
Martyr a park bench to tally the cost
Make a cut for every life

Caroline, quickly now, wind back the tape
Oh
Redact every message and scrub every trace
Oh
Pixelate

Was I the last to see that someone fixed the race?
That there’s no history which cannot be erased?
When I realised, God, you should have seen my face.

When I complain I can smell
The plague and rot
Shove me, grind my nose in it
Whisper, “No babe, you cannot.”
