Swamp Prophet - Death at Your Back

Light changes mood and attitude
Playful toy chairs in stark white
Glass is balanced on bamboo stilts
As a bent cigarette traced smoke

Step out into a black Monet
Walking against twilit skylines
Breathing shadows follow you
The Kraken calls me to sand

Ceiling tiled insects are crawling
Water flowing out of silver frames
Unwinding windows cool me down
This adrenaline-furnaced gelatin

Internal imagination
External hearts & minds
Queen of darkness holds the night
Bright light defines jagged mannequins

Step out into a black Monet
Walking against twilit skylines
Breathing shadows follow you
The Kraken calls me to sand

Time machine kitchenette
Dials back my intuition
Tape covered bookshelves
Post-modern time capsule

Inside beehives down thunder holes
The bowl holds my reflection
From granite cliffs and metal bars
Vistas upon the edge of the world
