lyrics

let me tell you about the crooks I've seen
they showed me nothing but a crooked lean is all
little liars on a fizzy screen of lights
little lifeboats on a sinking scene is all

let me tell you how the jury's rigged
how no one cares about the dirt you dig and why
marching elephants and apostates
and pretty prison blocks and ticket tents and vomit

someone call an ambulance // everything is patterned and somnambulant
someone call the local press / everything is patterned and somnambulant

count every ember in that fire you're reaching through
and every tenor in that choir you're preaching to
strolling all along in vague milieu
I want to watch it all sinking in the vomit
and a hatful of rabbits just falls into caskets
at the death of the magician, do the dummies keep on dancing

when the veil falls from your eyes and you're stripped of your leaves
and the winter is over, will everything still be frozen in static?

and you wanted to prove it but you couldn't do it
and you wanted to know it but you never knew it
and you wanted to touch it but you couldn't feel it
and you wanted to feel it but you fell through it

Enemy Airship St. Louis, Missouri

"Enemy Airship creates a sound that is atmospheric yet tightly coiled, its guitars and synths bleeding together to hint at garage rock, indie-pop, New Wave and experimental tones without ever picking a side." - Aarik Danielson, Columbia Daily Tribune
