“Quiet” by Trent Boswell
From the upcoming album of electronic music
Crossing the Rubicon
Lyrics:
ruthless angel,
bent on blood
ever-sought
endorphin flood
feast on heartbeat
of tender young
wily, sticky,
praise-dripping tongue
break accidental
steppingstone
precision, falling,
clockwork drone
caring for nothing
but small throne
calculations crunch
numbers, bone
no rancor, mess
rumor, hush
listen now,
quiet, shush
make a devil
but never tell
eat your silence,
control it well
bring your secrets
to curled, black lip
her favorite sound,
your blood, go drip
drink of the night
drink more than your fill
drink in the victory
drink to the kill
trophies invisible
trophies of flesh
all temples, divisible
empires mesh
quiet now, children,
and listen…
a story,
a clue
of course, you
didn’t hear it,
you were never
meant to
