Pale Flesh lyrics - Crystal Castles

Place the ash on their foreheads
An impression to embed
Born-Again before teething
Collect tears from their weeping

Oh hiding them under the seafoam
Package them like a cheap gift
You’re nesting under the corridor

Place the ash on their foreheads
An impression to embed
Born-Again before teething
Collect tears from their weeping

Oh hiding them under the seafoam
Package them like a cheap gift
You’re nesting under the corridor

Adolescent fiance
I’m just flesh to give away

Sad Eyes lyrics - Crystal Castles

She wears her veil at night
Shadows cast uninvite

Discourage affection

Sad eyes
Sad eyes
You can’t disguise sad eyes

Feign care and warm concern
The kiss you did not earn

Discourage affection

Sad eyes
Sad eyes
You can’t disguise sad eyes

Insulin lyrics - Crystal Castles

We dissolve everything
Scratch follicles so they don’t grow
Expose your shame for all to see
Sell your bones as ivory

Perfume in my blood
Nails grow through the glove
Bruise my embryo
Lay them down lay them down in rows

I sleep for you when you’re exhausted
Your first born will be accosted
Fill their lungs with tar and sage
Make the stem cells act their age

Perfume in my blood
Nails grow through the glove
bruise my embryo
Lay them down lay them down in rows

Transgender lyrics - Crystal Castles

Will you ever preserve will you ever exhume
Will you watch petals shed from flowers in bloom
Nothing can live up to promise
Nothing can stop its narrative
Nothing in place of catalysts
And you’ll never be pure again

Violent Youth lyrics - Crystal Castles

Show up in your lace
Drink up little girl
And they will always let you down
Hold your mother’s pearl
Show up in your lace
Up to your cheekbones
Prevention is the only cure
Kiss them through windows
Throw up in your plate
Look angelical
If you sleep before I arrive
I’ll pray for you my girl
A flower on fire
And I will always let you down

Mercenary lyrics - Crystal Castles

Silhouettes caress without feeling
Who’ll be your mercenary

Let the trespassers stay
Decorate starving strays
You can not convert me
Reparations unseen

Silhouettes caress without feeling
Who’ll be your mercenary

They dress them up in lace
Underage have their way
Join them in solitary
Should be voluntary

Child I Will Hurt You lyrics - Crystal Castles

Keep them locked away
Reduce them to strays
Clean their cuts and scrapes

Mercy we abstain
Hope you’re entertained
Snow covers the stain

Forray forever

Taught them with solace
They know a soft caress
To lower your defense

Hide all that you could
Done for the greater good
It’s later understood

Forray forever

Fainting Spells lyrics - Crystal Castles

I'll make you forget
with the taste of lambskin
The bounty is yours
It tastes like medicine

We evaporate
without condensation
but heaven is still
your only expectation

I'll make you forget
with the taste of lambskin
The bounty is yours
It tastes like medicine

We evaporate
without condensation
but heaven is still
your only expectation

Celestica lyrics - Crystal Castles

As we fall into sequence
and we're eating our young
remain silent and still for modesty
When the splints have been broken
and they can't help you now
do you pray with your eyes closed naturally

Follow me into nowhere
Woven with the utmost care

If I'm lost please don't find me
if I jump let me sink
we descended from no one
with a wink

When it's cold outside hold me
don't hold me
When I choose to rest my eyes coax me
don't coax me
When it's cold outside hold me
don't hold me
When I choose to rest my eyes coax me
don't coax me

Follow me into nowhere
Woven with the utmost care

Have they cleansed you with chloride
and scrubbed behind the knees
Has your body been hollowed by the breeze

Doe Deer lyrics - Crystal Castles

Deathray deathray
Deathray deathray
Deathray deathray
Deathray deathray

Baptism lyrics - Crystal Castles

Hold my head under water
Take a breath for the Father
Learn to love. Lessons repeating
The Chronicles are so misleading

This is your baptism
and you can't forgive em
This is your baptism
and you can't forgive em

Hold my head under water
Take a breath for the Father
Learn to love. Lessons repeating
The Chronicles are so misleading

This is your baptism
and you can't forgive em
This is your baptism
and you can't forgive em

Year Of Silence lyrics - Crystal Castles

"Minn besti vinur hverju sem dynur
Ég kyngi tári og anda hári"

"Illum látum, í faðmi grátum
Þegar að við hittumst
Þegar að við kyssumst"

Empathy lyrics - Crystal Castles

premise to interlude
wait til all bones pretrude
you're convexed, you're convert
there's a stain on your shirt
semi-sweet, semicide
the remorse you can't hide
now we molt past our skin
and make room to begin

symmetry
you must work in symmetry
you must earn their empathy

symmetry
you must work in symmetry
you must earn their empathy

down down cities fall down on me

the final chrysalis
self-controlled consciousness
now it feels omminent
done for your benefit
eat right out of their hand
its concaved all your glands
we're encouraged to forget
preference to be forcefed

symmetry
you must work in symmetry
you must earn their empathy

symmetry
you must work in symmetry
you must earn their empathy

down down cities fall down on me

you must earn our empathy
you must earn our empathy
you must earn our empathy
you must earn our empathy

Suffocation lyrics - Crystal Castles

We ignore refused consent
animals do not repent
courtesy to intervene
weathered down my selfish needs

I suffocate
and promise me you won’t resuscitate
and if I change my mind it’s far too late
I’m wasting my days as I’ve wasted my nights and I’ve wasted my youth
you’re waiting for something you’ve waited in vain because there’s nothing for you

Suffocation

Humility yet to be seen
models made of plasticene
morality disgrace us now
entertain and take a bow

I suffocate
and promise me you won’t resuscitate
and if I change my mind it’s far too late
I’m wasting my days as I’ve wasted my nights and i’ve wasted my youth
you’re waiting for something you’ve waited in vain because there’s nothing for you

Suffocation
