lyrics
Here stands your lover
And here he stands cold
In this courtroom of black solemn figures
And jury that’s yet to be sold
You could dip him in chocolate and sugar
You could crack his shell under your heel
You could try to hold on when his body is gone
And your scared from the back of the wheel
In the heaviest rains of the winter
with these horrible sounds in your ear
A fist clenches up in your stomach
Your hands slick with sweat while you steer
What will you say when you see him
And find scissors to cut off his gloves
With just nine broken fingers
With his face and his cheeks full of blood
And here he stands cold
In this courtroom of black solemn figures
And jury that’s yet to be sold
You could dip him in chocolate and sugar
You could crack his shell under your heel
You could try to hold on when his body is gone
And your scared from the back of the wheel
In the heaviest rains of the winter
with these horrible sounds in your ear
A fist clenches up in your stomach
Your hands slick with sweat while you steer
What will you say when you see him
And find scissors to cut off his gloves
With just nine broken fingers
With his face and his cheeks full of blood

Jake has made the most essential album to come out of St. John's, so essential it's two albums.

With Darkness In My Eyes
by The Heavy HorsesYeah I made the album art, but also it is very very well done album, production is pure opulence. Justin Mahoney is a true gent.
