Up-Tight Lyrics


I walked by the deserted skies

And I found unfailing ties

I went back to the dreaded place

I found a freeway to disconnected feelings of grace

Increase the night with void

When the Sun sets at last we glimpse the Light

With razorblade on his wrists

Kids are staggering on the streets

God loves his children

Up-tight

Up-tight

Grab the rope

Slight and peaceful

It's just another neck to break

Something falls

Something rises

Can you hear the bullets ?

We are doomed

We are the dregs

Decapitation, laceration

Lucifer kept astray

By the Harmony of Life that day

We are the crack that never healed

The time has come

Pack your bags and get dressed

This night we're moving to the unknown

Because Today is black and so is tomorrow

Bury all our feelings away

For god's sake

In the ashtray

Lying on these empty spaces

We escape from this room of emptiness

Let it flow unnamed

Swing your child on the tightrope ride

This is what we came for

Let our soul soar
