Emperor X - Erica Western Geiger Counter lyrics

With shaking hands She held the coinage Of a long-dead nation-state It fell absorbed Into the enclave When we walked away She went to sleep Next to a boy She scaled the walls She learned to skate She chiseled patterns inthe concrete She brought shielding down Hold my hand Grow my skin Slow my pulse rate Ignore the sound of fire alarms May we never hit that force field Hold me up Long enough To feel the tractor beam Out by the cobalt belt she ran Calmed the toxic cutlery Taking out The Matthews Bridge Was not an option for her She had no para chute No transit pa** No node display Instead she broke into the garage Procured a stolen Segway And k**ed the trees That she the retail grove Hold my hands Hold me down While my limbs shake We stayed awake To watch the bloom Of algae shudder and fluoresce And foam and roll While Coast Control Laid down a substrate I hung the latch key on your arm Got up real quietly And left To find a base To click force-quit Collect and translate in batch To non-compete To acquiesce To steal the seeds from incubation To sprint back home Return to bed correctly And get breathed on And get breathed on And get breathed on
