Mothwing Bite

By The Slip

On Eisenhower

Thumbnail

[Verse 1]

Cold fries

I'm half a cigarette

From believing

They doubled my potion

With those eyes

You might have to pretend

You're not even

'Til the song is blown


[Verse 2]

Your blue bow

As simple as the snow

Like confetti

How steady you bloom

But those girls

And trouble makes you feel

Like it's okay


[Chorus]

You left a bite

I'd never seen before

And it was shaped

Like a moth wing

And I don't have to paint

The devil on the wall, babe

That's to say

It grows

But it won't go away

I said, boom

My lord

If you ever get back

To Little Compton


[Verse 3]

A bolide

A fire in the sky

A machete

I've mistaken my own

There's no drugs

In Boston or L.A

That'll get me

Home


[Chorus]

You left a bite

I'd never seen before

And it was shaped

Like a moth wing

And now I've left a trail of blood

From your window pane

I'm drawn

Like a moth to a flame

I said, boom

My lord

If you ever get back

To Little Compton


[Outro]

(Mothwing's Bite)

(What is that?)
