Music for Wallflowers (Fogtrucker: A Victim Slant​)​, feat. How Far To Hitchin

from Deepfleshred ♂♀ (AVAILABLE ON BLACK_BOX_RECORDINGS <link enclosed>) by MANGABROS.™

/

about

very popular song live, in waltz-time, with a deceptively catchy hookline masking the dark undertow. part of the F-Trucker cycle. images of suicidal quadroplegic dancers, reversed sexual roles...and always, lurking in the wings, our predatory psychotic truck-driver. the accident IS inevitable. everything is impossibly twisted. cause becomes effect, and effect affects cause. lol.

lyrics

suddenly i want to hold you again
and the moment is perfect
both transient and tangible
i'm head over heels
and i love how it feels
october pitched wild
flutter, black butterflies

falling through colours and sparks
a gazillion fireworks
exploding
in backseats of cars
in dreams, i have legs
stabilizers removed
step in front of the truck
with nothing to lose...

laugh out loud
they shoot horses
don't they?

disguise in love
with a boy half my age
wallflowers wilting
on hot summer days
no longer needing
those shadows
to retreat into
once songs drop their tempo
and there's no-one to cling to.
save me the slow one
and i'll blog you on tuesday
stream you a kiss
maybe win you a goldfish.

laugh out loud
they shoot horses
don't they?

disguise in love
and it's love in disguise
but the chat-rooms are full
and this ain't real life
trawling through blindspots
and holes in the land of the blind
just to dance with you
leading this time
and i daren't even crawl
from behind my firewall

and the headlights stretch
into infinity
transfixing
me.
