And the summer hail
I'm the king of nails
I drink my liquor from the palm
Of a child who spoke in tongues
And smelled like sun
Give all your leaves
To the ghosts in the trees
To sink or to shine
The nails are all mine
And blood was rushing up the stairs
I shut my eyes and killed the c***
When the sun came knocking
Oh to taste the salty oil
Of your chest and on your eyes
When the sting is on the rise
Sleep in the fire
With snakes I have sired
To sink or to shine
The nails are all mine
I drink my liquor from the palm
Of a child who spoke in tongues
And smelled like sun
The toothless kiss of skeletons
And the summer hail
I'm the king of nails
Give all your leaves
To the ghosts in the trees
To sink or to shine
The nails are all mine
Sleep in the fire
With snakes I have sired
To sink or to shine
The nails are all mine
The toothless kiss of skeletons And the summer hail I'm the king of nails I drink my liquor from the palm Of a child who spoke in tongues And smelled like sun Give all your leaves To the ghosts in the trees To sink or to shine The nails are all mine And blood was rushing up the stairs I shut my eyes and killed the c*** When the sun came knocking Oh to taste the salty oil Of your chest and on your eyes When the sting is on the rise Sleep in the fire With snakes I have sired To sink or to shine The nails are all mine I drink my liquor from the palm Of a child who spoke in tongues And smelled like sun The toothless kiss of skeletons And the summer hail I'm the king of nails Give all your leaves To the ghosts in the trees To sink or to shine The nails are all mine Sleep in the fire With snakes I have sired To sink or to shine The nails are all mine Explain Request ×
