about

Stand In Line is a hypnotic dark rumination on personal mortality, the challenges of staying "alive" within and not just living, and the sensationalism of celebrity.

lyrics

Stand In Line

When you’re alone and alive…
behind a lacy shroud
death peeks her head out wantin’ to jive
and your mouth he breath
and your mouth she breath

Now there’s talk of treason
but you were made for breathin’
making yourself feel bad, for no reason
with love, just outside of season
I lost the search once I forget the reason

and the ordinary become sublime

Now there’s talk of treason
but you were made for breathin’
making yourself feel bad, for no reason
and your mouth he breathe

Just before the dawn
you court it like a gypsy
dress it up and drag it along
truth, she’s taken a beating
but her scars still sing a pretty song
cause I damn well know
what goes up must come down

and your mouth he breathe
and your mouth she breathe
and your mouth he breathe
and your mouth she breathe
and your mouth and your mouth and your mouth…

what goes up must come down

Yeah I’d stand in line to touch it
then I’d stand in line to watch it die
& then I’d stand in line to touch it
yeah I’d stand in line to touch it
and then I’d stand in line to touch it
yeah I’d stand in line to touch that
I’d stand in line to touch it
and then I’d stand in line just to watch it die!
