Don't Look at Me

(album: Skeleton Coast - 2020)

This is a failed attempt
Words crashing, bartenders and wimps
Gimping to bass-addled tunes
The runes say that I'm doomed
And I hope you are, too

The lonely descent won't be nothing
If you wrap your bones in mine
There's nothing to fear in this darkness
If I've got your light by my side

The river ain't too hard to cross
And I befriended the dogs
And I made it into the inferno just fine
I'm not trying to slow down the time oh no

Don't look, don't look, don't look at me, baby
Look out at that shitty oceanside, maybe
There is nothing that could turn me off of you
But I've got this date with the devil and you're coming, too

Don't look, don't look, don't look at me, baby
Just find a wrapping to cover my corpse, maybe
There is nothing that could turn me off of you
But I've got this date with the devil and you're coming, too

Don't look at me
Don't look at me
Cause my life, my love and my lady is the sea
Don't look at me
