Destroyer - Leopard Of Honor Lyrics

The leopard of honor speaks
To a crowd of the dead, shouting out for more
Suspiciously formed of the fast ones
"You must always leave them wanting," he said
So we went down to the store
I saw you at the store

Now, in this regards, where do I start
To keep us free, keep us apart?
I wanted to speak up, but it was not my place
Just some little shit in love with your eyes
A brute adrift in space
Pirouettes across the sky's faces where you'll find me

I was dead on my feet, asleep for days
A stranger to the sun's brutal gaze, ah yeah
Mother Superior's the only one who calls
She says, "Hey, when are you ever coming over?"
Remove that wretched writing from the wall
It's just more pictures again

Jenny fell like a ton of bricks
Jenny fell like a ton of bricks
These are characterized as special times
And these are special times, oh
Jenny fell like a ton of bricks
She travels in and out of you like some shade whistlin' Dixie
I didn't know why, I guess I was high
Sick mansions freckle the skies
Saying, "for Christ's sake, inhabit me"

I was dead on my feet, asleep for days
A stranger to the sun's brutal ways, ah yeah
Mother Superior's the only one who calls
She says, "Baby, when are you ever coming over?"
Enjoy the wretched writing on the wall
Enjoy!

Will the leopard of honor speak? Will the leopard of honor speak?
Please stand, open your mouth, put out your hand and say
"I saw you standing there singing for money"
Going "dum, da, da, dum"
