mr. phi – cityscape at night lyrics
[verse 1]
rooftops, warm raindrops and tube tops
watch the avenues divide homes and shops into blocks
lights of daily lives decline towards nightly skies
slowly tracing urban planning lines into her inner thighs
smoke trickles up her lips
to where her eyeliner drips
a black river styx down towards the next eclipse
puckered lips around a burnt+out cigarette (smoke)
blood+shot eyes on a h+llenistic statuette
sculpting words in a way that will please innanna
less terracotta, morе temple of kama
soft skin, fiercе grip
short breaths, lower lip play
amazed with a fixed gaze at the display
nothing more to say
digging for buried words
another day slipping away
a terrible curse
(tonight)
hoping for sincerity
wait to gain your trust
steady column for a fallen bust
[chorus]
strong tales, soft praise
we’ve lost this place
come watch the lights
i’ll be looking at the cityscape tonight
strong tales, soft praise
we’ve lost this place
come watch the lights
i’ll be looking at the cityscape tonight
[verse 2]
i had to flee my babylon
so i travelled south of macedon
to find me a mountain to build a castle on
lost my head, saw the demons on an angel’s face
broken wings, still vanished without a samothrace
high praise be onto nike
i tried to phrase “do you like me”
in the silence of the brain’s psyche
it’s unlike me, but you incite me
to deprive eyes of the very sightly aphrodites
they strip bare and align cruciate
then loosen to entwine a staff and form a caduceus
awaken the mercurial being, or make him sleepiest
mistake the message for a blessing like it’s asclepius
pushing rocks like young theseus
tedious, but every day stronger than the previous
if you feel a spark, thank prometheus
he couldn’t stomach this place, its full of deviants
[chorus]
strong tales, soft praise
we’ve lost this place
come watch the lights
i’ll be looking at the cityscape tonight
strong tales, soft praise
we’ve lost this place
come watch the lights
i’ll be looking at the cityscape tonight
strong tales, soft praise
we have lost this place
i’ll be looking over the cityscape tonight
(a h+llenistic sh+ll of her former self)
(a m+s+ch+stic dwell on the dormant shelf)
(the fallen mystic and the cornered elf)
(there’s nothing more to tell)
