lyrics

Mosquitoes swarm the porch, I guess you didn't mind
Because you're out there smoking, making silly faces
The words you offer, jumbled up, but kind.
It's no surprise that your blue eyes hold traces of...
Last night...

Outlaw artist with a legacy to lay
With your hands on fire and a captive audience
Stay awake as long as possible, then sleep until midday
Keeping the sunshine in suspence

You look up at the sky
Put your bare feet on the earth
Dancin and gettin high
under the spitting electricity of powerlines in Florida's humidity

Stumblin uphill with sleep still in your veins
The ink in your shoulder gets hot in the daylight
Let go of that which pulls away and then cherish what remains
Your friends will be there, drumming through the night

You've got that quick-spittin drunken tongue
and a gun hidden in your sock drawer
It's so goddamn good to be young
But anxiety slips in... through the lines we draw on mirrors and skin
And it's goin around... like a rumor told to keep you down
And it burns... like salt in your sinus when you're alone
And when the creatures that sleep in the silence come for your sweet and unwashed flesh, you know it's better than home

about

Stuffy Doll

Stuffy Doll is weird music for creatures that like stories, wordplay, glitter, and grit. Lots of genres, high-concept concept albums, an unreasonable amount of attention to detail
