about

Refer to Edgar Allen Poe's short story Ligeia.

lyrics

Never had a loss for words lamenting you in verse
Anything that’s said, the meaning’s reversed
Something about an addict sees you differently
Some misty-winged Ashtophet’s presiding over me

If love was put on shelves
Images of you would be loving themselves

I can only take so much before you go to hell
It drags me down but I guess it suits you well
I felt you shuttering the night you came alive
Convulsing on the bed something still waits inside

A tinted room
Impending doom
Unraveled you
Started taking shape

Forgetting everything but flashbulb memories
Your apartment’s a forensic scene

This is our joint neurosis tied down to a chair
You keep on tightening but I don't fucking care
My lips are turning white and you’re tying the knot
Next time you see me I’ll be in the blackest clothes I got
