All The Nation's Airports

Archers Of Loaf All The Nation's Airports Lyrics
1.Strangled By The Stereowire

Strangled by the stereowire
Cut and depressed in the victim's eye.
With a public finger on a false alarm.
Pulling down in a rush of irreversible lies.

A cold so thick that the static glows.
Leaks off her chest so the people know.
Splintered and strained as the rupture grows.
Is all cynically thrown down a swallowing throat.

Strangled by the stereowire
Cut and depressed in the victim's eye.
With a public finger on a false alarm.
Pulling down in a rush of irreversible lies.

A cold so thick that the static glows.
Leaks to the press so the people know.
Splintered and strained as the rupture grows.
Is all cynically thrown down a swallowing throat.

Is all cynically thrown down a swallowing throat.
A swallowing throat...


2.All The Nations Airports

Shuffling through all the nations airports
Invalids collide with terrorist scum.
Choking on the lag, the headset's spilling over.
Choking on the lag, the exiles plot.

So shovel under rugs, the ones who notice.
Channel into locks, the pilot's drunk.
The resin in his mouth just means he's hated.
The radio is tapped, the bastard's drunk.

Channelling through aviation transport.
Derelicts rely on red light slums.
Scandals interlock, linking all the patrons.
And tourists intertwine in effortless lumps.

So shovel under rugs, the one's who notice.
Channel into locks, the pilot's drunk.
The resin in their eyes just means they're hated.
Tapping on his mike, the pilot's drunk.

Shuffling through all the nations airports
Invalids collide with terrorist scum.
Scandals interlock, linking all the patrons.
And tourists intertwine in effortless lumps.

Channelling through all the nations airports
Derelicts rely on red light slums.
Choking on the lag, the headset's spilling over.
Choking on the lag, the exiles plot.


3.Scenic Pastures

Scenic pastures, nervous from your service marked conversation.
Seen it happen, a million times before.
Why do you want me to go?
Why don't you want me to know?
Why?
Scenic pastures, nervous from before me

Scenic pastures, nervous from your service marked invitation.
Seen it happen, a million times before.
Why do you want me to go?
Why don't you want me to know?
Why?
Scenic pastures, nervous from before me


4.The Worst Defense

They're running on their worst defense, defenses.
They're running on their worst defense, defenses.
They're running on their worst defense, defenses.
They're running on their worst defense, defenses.

No light,
Guides you.
Leads you on.
Blinds you.

The voice that cracks the latest pressure.
Chips, their finest phrase that pays you
Off, with hands you can't depend on
For the best defense.


5.Attack Of The Killer Bees


6.Rental Sting

Rental sting, the customer is king.
Waste your life, waste your life.
Little things can cost you everything.
Save your life, save your life.

Dead and white, our distance is disguised.
Mad and sad when it's my misunderstanding.'
Rental sting, the customer is king.
Waste your life, waste your life.

7. assassination on christmas eve

Assassination shocks a nation.
When such a brutal crime is killing christmas time.
They capped the hero, under mistletoe
Unveiled the bitter sign, declared and left behind.

And no one wants to see it, 'cause no one can believe it.
A traffic cop set some strangers free, assassination on
christmas eve.
And police and detectives were purely inaffecitve,
The d.a.'s resgination stands, assassination on christmas eve.

And a traffic cop let some strangers get away.
And a traffic cop let some strangers get away.

Assassination shocks a nation.
When such a brutal crime is killing christmas time.
They capped the hero, under mistletoe
Unveiled the bitter sign, declared and left behind.

And no one wants see it, 'cause no one can believe this.
The teenage revolutions planned assassination on christmas eve.
And police and detctives were purely inaffective,
The d.a.'s resgination stands, assassination on christmas eve.

And a traffic cop let some strangers get away.
And a traffic cop let some strangers get away.
And a traffic cop let some strangers get away.
And a traffic cop let some strangers get away.

8.Chumming The Oceans

South of the river's mouth
Migration slopes slowly towards mainland.
There, the salt air
Fills the gills of the dead bait in hand.

The deep is in riot, the coastline is quiet
Asleep and divided in bands.
While beer halls all revil, drunk and disheveled,
Helplessly wading the diver is down.

And they're chumming the oceans.
The signal is sent,
Recieved and repsonded to.
The water is red, red, red, red.

We're downed, downed as the hand of god
Chokes the driftwood with dead weight and brine.
And spawning the detailed decline
Via dorsal cuts, hooks, sink and line.

The anchors have setlled, the tanks are full level.
The flag has been raised half-mast on the bow.
And harpoons are loaded, the cage has been lowered.
The mask's on, the diver is down, now.

And they're chumming the oceans.
The signal is sent
I think he's in trouble.
The water is red, red, red, red.


9.Vocal Shrapnel

Crippled by the call into complete decay.
An everlasting lost can leave a bitter taste.
Overrated, she's not faking
Idiots collect to run a losing pace.

And i can't run fast enough to beat you in a simple way.
And then they come, demanding a reaction to the light of day.
The lazy voice is making noise.
The reasons clad in vocal shrapnel.

Settle in the call to mark the minutes by.
A minute's thick enough to last a long, long while.
Overrated, she's not faking
Frozen into place, one million hateful smiles.

And i can't run fast enough to beat you in a simple way.
And then they come, demanding a reaction to the light of day.
The lazy voice is making noise.
The reasons credit vocal shrapnel.

I can't run fast enough to beat you in a simple way.
I can't run fast enough to beat you in a simple way.


10.Bones Of Her Hands

She takes the bones of her hands, to tangle up the soles of her
feet.
To make a loss look good on paper, 'til it's outside of our
reach.
And they're coming in on runway strips to pump the rival's
hatred.
And screaming out uncomfortable and falling out of favor.

And they coat the walls, too complicated,
Scrape the roads in desperation.
Distances too far to wait on,
In the throws of ...

She takes the bones of her hands, to trample on the soles of our
feet.
To make a loss look good on paper, 'til it's outside of our
reach.
It's the perfect confrontation now to pump our rival's hatred.
And screaming out uncomfortable and falling from your favor.

And it writes itself too complicated,
Breathe the air in suffocation.
Distances, so self-effacing,
In the throws of the bones of her hand.

12.Form And File

Crossing some creek or small river somewhere in north, northwest
boder of germany, something like that. uhm, yeah, i think its
_____ there something to the right, right, right, yeah. yeah, i
don
Ow, man. the morale here is pretty fucking low alright. i think
we might be breaking up. no, no, not that it's what's best or
anything, but i, uhm, it might not be a matter of choice, you
know.
Yeah just, yeah, right, right, just uh, just see what you can do
on your end about sending in some help and in the meantime i
will just do my best to keep losses and such kept to a minimum
here.
If there's any, any sure way to secure a sort of refuge where
the folks are more friendly, so whatever, right, let me know, or
anything else, anything else, let me know this first.

Laughing at your good advice
Formula unfolding city wide.
Cycles overtaking form and file.
Erased in spite of your good advice.
Defaced and tired of your good advice.

14.Distance Comes In Droves

Revel in the plans you make
Linger in the lull
Think about the effort saved
Distance comes in droves.

Distal burden waits on the shoulders of the great alaska.
Tundra, frozen over permanent preserves forworn disaster.
Polar tides, pulling suffocation ushered in by ancient icebergs.
Evil, creeps along the coastline underneath the belly of alaska,
Underneath the belly of alaska, underneath the belly of alaska.

Revel in the plans you made
Linger in the lull
Think about the effort saved
Distance comes in droves.

Distal burden waits on the shoulders of the great alaska.
Tundra, frozen over permanent preserves forworn disaster.
Polar tides, pulling suffocation ushered in by ancient icebergs.
Evil, creeps along the coastline underneath the belly of alaska,
Underneath the belly of alaska, underneath the belly of alaska.
