ME REX - Eutherians (Ultramarine) Lyrics

I used to breathe blue flames

I spoke in solar flares

How I would to scream white sparks

Into the thick night air

I came here on my knees

Arrived all scorched and singed

Still bore the uniform

That's worn by all burned things

The skin of your eyelid's

A brittle chrysalis

There's crystallised dried spit

Trod into these carpets

Seemed like a hopeless case

Maybe the worst you'd seen

I'd heard a brand new world above and underneath

Under the

deep deep deep deep ultramarine

Could you love me to death for the best part of a century

A deep deep deep ultramarine

Could you love me

Could you love me

Made up like animals

Rabid and slathering

Marks of great beauty lay

Across a human skin

We're going to work it out

One more unstable week

We're spilling sweat and blood

I take it strong and sweet

A lasting happiness

Cannot be far from here

We wake up terrified

Kind of get off on fear

It was our last escape

We always crashed against

The barricaded gates

Of heaven anyway

Under a

deep deep deep deep ultramarine

Could you love me to death for the best part of a century

A deep deep deep ultramarine

Could you love me

Could you love me

I know the river's deep

But I think we can swim

It makes your cold wet clothes

All cling onto your skin

And we can tread the water

Till we ache and sting

For as long as you want

It's never made us clean

Till every tongue will sing and every heart will stop

Come out into the sun

If just to warm your blood

Unholy madrigals

We used to scream out loud

But we all might be here for the last time now

Under the

deep deep deep deep ultramarine

Could you love me to death for the best part of a century

A deep deep deep ultramarine

Could you love me

Could you love me

We saw the brightest futures ever prophesied

Grind to a jarring halt

And then the zeitgeist died but

If this love becomes

Automatic impulse

Something mechanical

Fades into background hum and sinks

Deep deep deep deep ultramarine

Could you love me to death for the best part of a century

A deep deep deep ultramarine

Could you love me

Could you love me

Under a deep deep deep deep ultramarine

deep deep deep ultramarine

Deep deep deep deep deep deep deep ultramarine

Could you love me

Could you love me
