Chimney's Afire (Mickensian Suicide) Lyrics

Xiu Xiu

You had to dig hard
To find the cult of arteries
Astride the great gulf sea,
Across Dresden kitchen

Chimney's afire
Chimney's afire
The vast deep's surface shines
With gore and spermaceti
An outlook certain

Oh vanity!
You are a cutting vessel
Racing with whispered furies
On hellhounds broken backs

Chimney's afire
Chimney's afire
The vast deep's surface slips
With gore and spermaceti
An outlook certain

Draw in the line,
Don't let it twist or tangle
Bring the beast clear and close
And let your lance drive true

Chimney's afire
Chimney's afire
The vast deep's blah blah blah
With gore and spermaceti
On that which could not be forgiven
