ππππππππππ When the Smoke Clears: Chrome Kissess ππππππππππ Slick street, zero light Shadows curve where the sirens bite Slugs in my jacket, drumbeat in my spine I slid through the alleys with a 4/4 crime Chrome under my coat, whisperinβ soft Like a lover who breathes just before she goes off First shot sang through the smoke and rain Lit the wall like a kiss with pain Brass hit the floor like it missed me on purpose I grinned through the gas and found my chorus These chrome kissess Ainβt for love They hum in time Then push and shove I donβt pray I donβt plead I just sing While the slugs still bleed Heartbeat synced to a semiauto sway Finger on rhythm, body in play Corp patrol turned the corner too slow Nova lit βem up like a pyro show Precious dropped the line with a bass so deep The ground shook tears from the asphalt's sleep Krush slammed fills like a barroom brawl And I let chrome kissess write on the wall These chrome kissess Ainβt for show They leave a mark Youβll never know No mercy No creed Just me and the brass And the song I bleed Hexaβs loopinβ a ghost in the wires Humming sweet death with her glitchy choirs We donβt run we sway and sting We let the smoke fill everything These chrome kissess Are how I breathe They write my name On everything I leave So when I drop Don't mourn my sting Just load the next roundβ¦ and let the chrome sing. ...chrome... kissess...
