Bread and Darkness

{sub-bass drone, ticking clock

percussion,

dark detuned synth chords} (tick,

tick, tick)

Four AM, the flour rises Sifting through your cold disguises Sugar coating

all the lies

Glaze of ice behind your eyes {intimate whispered vocals} Knead the dough

until it breaks

Oh, the bitter things we bake

(ahhhh) {rhythmic building drums,

rising filter sweep} In the warmth of the bakery,

we burn, we burn To the ashes of a sweet mistake we

turn Bitter honey dripping

on the kitchen floor

We don't live here anymore

{heavy industrial beat, soaring melodic vocals}

Oven door is locked and sealed

All the secrets are revealed

Smoke is creeping up the stairs

No one's left who even cares {dry vocals,

ticking returns}

We let it rise,

we let it fall

Now we've burnt it after all

(sweet, sweet mistake)

{haunting vocal round, distorted synth solo} In the warmth of the bakery,

we burn, we burn To the ashes of a sweet mistake we

turn Bitter honey dripping

on the kitchen floor

We don't live here anymore

{full

climax, maximum energy, heavy beats}

Just ash... And smoke...

(shhhh) {fading clock ticks,

lone music box melody,

tape stop effect}
