charleston shoe thieves - once a thief (esme’s haunted) lyrics

Loading...

[intro]
there is a grove of flowers where the shoes hang from the trees
where violets glitch & stutter, shining atemporally
one flower+covered pillar grows from an old doc marten boot
you can see the laces wrapped around the root

[verse 1]
once a thief, always a thief
no blaseball player sleeps beneath the earth
no restful bed, no restless dead

once a thief, always a thief
no matter where you are, when fire swallows you
we’ll come for you

whose kicks? (our kicks)

[chorus]
esme ramsey, won’t you call us home?
esme ramsey, i will trouble you no more

[verse 2]
we fought god, oh, we fought god
we broke ourselves against the pods
and lost
first cursed among the chaos
empty shoes and open laces
worn out souls and broken traces
so many lost, grist for the gods’ mill
burning on, but for the turning wheel

[verse 3]
god is dead, behold ascension
thick as thieves, beyond our comprehension
for the 502, doyle and gloom
we will see you one day soon

crack the sky, behold the hall stars
baltimore is beautiful
scattered loose like t++th
when the time comes

just ask yourself whose kicks are these

[chorus]
esme ramsey, won’t you call us home?
esme ramsey, i will trouble you no more
