Lyrics Nightliner Rhapsody - Hellions

Nightliner Rhapsody

This is insulation for the night cold
A cigarette and a drink to lacquer over bones
You either kindle the blood or shiver yourself warm
And the precipice of joyous madness calls in me
Aren’t we ecstatic as we dance along it?
Blunting the time-sharpened edge of neuroses
Nullification, vivification
Tantamount powers at a stalemate in me
Aren’t we ecstatic as we all dance along it?
Our wet precipice
(Pour a drink and take a seat beside me)
To each their own perspective, each their own vice
And I’ve made up my mind
Pour up a drink, take a seat with me
And we’ll flood out everything
You need someone, and I give a fuck
So let’s give those demons wings
And regardless of the way that the pendulum swings
I’ve come to realise that it’s okay to believe
That life is nothing but a vertiginous dream
And that’s all I’ve ever wanted it to be
Breaking my own heart to feel the love
Like the love of one’s youth, that makes you jump and run
You either kindle the blood or shiver yourself warm
So bring it back, raise your voice, put your glass to your lips and drink
Aren’t we ecstatic as we all dance along it?
Our wet precipice
(Pour a drink and take a seat beside me)
To each their own perspective, each their own vice
And I’ve made up my mind
Pour up a drink, take a seat with me
And we’ll flood out everything
You need someone, and I give a fuck
So let’s give those demons wings
You’re stronger than addiction
Stronger than even bereavement
My friend I’ve seen it
And our vigils, pickled in whiskey
Are preserved eternally in my enduring memory
Aren’t we ecstatic as we all dance along it?
Our wet precipice
(Pour a drink and take a seat beside me)
To each their own perspective, each their own vice
And I’ve made up my mind
Pour up a drink, take a seat with me
And we’ll flood out everything
You need someone, and I give a fuck
So let’s give those demons wings
Kindle the blood or shiver yourself warm
Kindle the blood or shiver yourself warm
