Lyrics We Ride Skeletal Lightning - The Blood Brothers

We Ride Skeletal Lightning

We’re the boys jailed in a horse’s skull
We nailed our ears to a feral glittery drone
The only thing that makes our blood feel like blood
Is stealing cars and watching lightning bolts fuck
So don’t look away, every day’s the same
Every song’s the same in this sanitized exploding airplane
Well I got shot in the face, it’s all on videotape
So come on, watch the blood, it’s pouring commercial-free
Well I got shot in the face, it’s all on videotape
So come on, watch the blood, it’s pouring commercial-free
We’re the girls chewing styrofoam
Pulling our wigs under a monochrome glow
The only line that’s talking us into bed
Is the freeway’s static hiss drilling holes in our heads, so
So don’t look away from the clouds leaking rust
The kingdom of heaven reeks of burning witches and dust
Well I got shot in the face, it’s all on videotape
So come on, watch the blood, it’s pouring commercial-free
Well I got shot in the face, it’s all on videotape
So come on, watch the blood, it’s pouring commercial-free
Seven items dripped out the back of my head:
One big war and one color red;
One vulgar leg and one designer tree;
Two stallions and a pound of confetti
Oh, salvation!
Hollow lightning, so skeletal…
Shipwrecked freeways!
Concrete ribcage, so boring…
Oh, salvation!
Hollow lightning, so skeletal
Shipwrecked freeways!
Well I got shot in the face, it’s all on videotape
So come on, watch the blood, it’s pouring commercial-free
Well I got shot in the face, it’s all on videotape
So come on, watch the blood, it’s pouring commercial-free
We ride skeletal lightning, vacant as a womb that’s miscarried
