Motorcade Lyrics

An empty road and a rusted sky
An abandoned mardi gras
You led me to a mountaintop
So I could see it all
Your salty kiss, you promised this
That I could have you all
And now with you here by my side
I will never fall
horus
So show me where it hurts
I'll kiss it so it don't get any worse
A ticker tape parade, the traffic barricades
Waiting on a long motorcade
I will be the car and all the bodyguards
I will be the silence in your eyes
I will be your aid, I will serenade
I will be your motorcade
reak
An effigy of Maximon
I've come to make my wish
A hole was drilled, where his mouth was filled
with wine and cigarettes
A muggy night, a fire bright
and a reggae band plays "Israelites"
You on my arm, Your addictive charms
You're like heroin to me tonight
horus
So show me where it hurts
I'll kiss it so it don't get any worse
A ticker tape parade, the traffic barricades
Waiting on a long motorcade
I will be the car and all the bodyguards
I will be the silence in your eyes
I will be your aid, I will serenade
I will be your motorcade
Instrumental
The driver veers, grinds the gears
The sky is dripping red
You scratch your last, minute vows
in an old cigar box lid
Night falls, the engine stalls
in this Guatemala chicken bus
They took it all, my watch, our rings,
but they were simply things to us
horus
So show me where it hurts
I'll kiss it so it don't get any worse
A ticker tape parade, the traffic barricades
Waiting on a long motorcade
I will be the car and all the bodyguards
I will be the stillness in your fear
I will be your aid, I will serenade
I will be your motorcade
