Heat Lightning

from Greetings from the Sunshine State by Safety

lyrics

Dimming world is gonna burn out soon
One part per million past the threshold of pain
Event Horizon at the dark of the moon
I’m in the corner on the acid rain

Jester king with a malicious mic
All smoke and mirrors while he takes his cut
I’ll drink the poison if the price is right
Make me an offer I can’t pass up

Flora, Fauna, hear your mantra:

Oblivion, oblivion,
Rapture me into the sun
Your servant’s work is never done
Amen

Mr. Believer’s got his eyes shut tight
He paid the premium for inner peace
Down at the temple on his knees last night
Put all his money at the Guru’s feet
Every spider has a mating dance
A stranger knocking with an honest grin
He’ll wrap you up if he has half a chance
Pincers open when you let him in

Sons and daughters, take your mantra:

Dimming world is gonna burn out soon
Stranger knocking with an honest grin
Event Horizon at the dark of the moon
