Gasoline Rainbows

Gasoline rainbows over mercury lakes

Cataract halos for illuminated fakes

If life is a series of narrow escapes

Magical thinking puts a file in every cake

In backwaters of belief

They've been sharpening their teeth

Wings of angels, satellites fall burning in the night

Vulturine heroes

Beguile and betray

Dopamine payloads

Drive this on-demand doomsday

In backwaters of belief

They've been sharpening their teeth

Wings of angels, satellites fall burning in the night

And what good is the word of a god

Who won't return 'til everything has burned?

Gasoline rainbows

Gasoline rainbows (cataract halos)

Gasoline rainbows (dopamine payload)

Gasoline rainbows (down a dead end road)

Gasoline rainbows (merrily we go)
