Desert of Aneh-Tet (Cover)

[Verse 1] Sun-burnt lips and Sand in our sheets Field notes open Buttoned too deep Catalog bones while We undress the earth You trace my spine like You’re brushing off dirt Jeep tracks bleeding Into hot mirage You say “dig deeper” Like a secret charge In the canyon’s throat We find her door Golden jackals staring Begging for more [Chorus] Aneh-Tet In the desert heat She wakes when our Dirty hands touch her feet Every kiss Is a curse we keep Bodies on the altar To feed her sleep Aneh-Tet Take another breath Turn a thirsty town Into temple of death In your sandstorm eyes We lose regret Raise your army Queen I’m not done with you yet (oh yeah) [Verse 2] Hieroglyph hips on The limestone wall Naked in torches Shadowing small We break the seal with A laughing moan Her name cuts through us Straight to the bone Wind turns sour Like a last exhale Black-veiled stranger Watching from the trail He smiles soft as he Locks the gate Says “She likes lovers They make the best bait” [Chorus] Aneh-Tet In the desert heat She wakes when our Dirty hands touch her feet Every kiss Is a curse we keep Bodies on the altar To feed her sleep Aneh-Tet Take another breath Turn a thirsty town Into temple of death In your sandstorm eyes We lose regret Raise your army Queen I’m not done with you yet [Bridge] [Riff drops to slow Grinding groove] Dead walk pretty In hotel halls Lipstick smears on The plastered walls Stranger’s blade Drawing sacred lines One more heart for her Every time it shines (hey!) Locusts crawl from The sheriff’s mouth Ancient vowels Pouring out She rides the sky in a Veil of ash Whispers “lover Will you burn or clash?” [Verse 3] We paint our skin with Her stolen ink Wrap our wrists in Stolen links Read the spell spilled In our sweat Trade our fear For a blood-soaked bet Circle of salt in A neon dust Shotgun chanting “ashes to dust” She steps through fire Smiling Wet With a thousand mummies Snapping their necks [Chorus] Aneh-Tet I can taste your throne You want their flesh But I want your bones Every scream Is a love we owe Every falling body Helps your empire grow Aneh-Tet Feel my final breath Spit your curse back Into your chest If I die here Wrapped in your net Let the desert say We made hell sweat [Outro] [Tempo surges Frantic tremolo picking] Sandstorm siren Wrapped in red We kiss mid-battle Surrounded by dead If this is doom Then I’m your pet Bound in linen love To Aneh-Tet
