Testo First Night

charlemagne shakes in the streets

gideon makes love to the suites

holly's not invincible

in fact she's in the hospital.
not far from the bar where we met

on that first night.



charlemagne pulls street corner scams

gideon's got a pipe made from a pringles can.

holly's insatiable.

she still looks incredible.

but she don't look like the same girl we met.

on that first night.



she was golden with barlight and beer.

she cried when she told us about jesus.



holly's inconsolable

don't bother talking to the guys

with the hot soft eyes.

they're already taken.

*to all those sequencer and beats boys.



when they kiss they spit white noise.

white noise.
