Testo Extend And Embrace

There was a girl who came to stay
At least I thought her real
With fine narcotic friends
To leave her punch-drunk in the fields

Eye witness to protection
As a foil for decay
Technicolour nightmares From the land of green and grey

Extend an embrace to a smack in the teeth
See the black of your eyes as a blessed relief
As the ghost of her innocence spatters the wall
Taste the blood in your mouth and remember it all

We hurt the ones we love the most
In carelessness and ire
Balance probabilities
And mitigate desire

In desolation's solitude
Together all alone
Hell-bent on resolution And a pride that we disown

Extend an embrace to a smack in the teeth
See the back of your eyes in a blessed relief
As the ghost of her innocence spatters the wall
Taste the blood in your mouth and remember it all

Embrace
Extend
Extinguish
