Dark Science

Artist - Coyote Kid


The witchdoctor's in

Please take a seat

Let the subtle scent soak in

Watch your senses take their leave

Let me read your filthy palms

Like a star chart on the sea

The creases in your skin crawling

Like the spider's web we weave

And in every strand I see a path like a carrot on a string

The future's just a memory that's dangling out of reach


Of your cold heart, no spark

Restarting your true dark

With mismatched animal parts

Cannibal starved, natural

Death is just the start of progress


There's no need to be afraid, it's just dark science

There's no need to be afraid of the dark

There's no need to be afraid, it's just dark science

There's no need to be afraid


Let me read your tarot cards

Like a twisted puzzle piece

With every draw I paint a picture

Perfect murder scene

But if these mortuary walls could talk

We both know that they'd scream

Hindsight is the only judge and jury that I need


For your cold heart, no spark

Restarting your true dark

With mismatched animal parts

Cannibal starved, natural

Death is just the start of progress


There's no need to be afraid, it's just dark science

There's no need to be afraid of the dark

There's no need to be afraid, it's just dark science

There's no need to be afraid


I hate to say it, I know you hate it

But control is overrated and I know you can't contain it

So let go of all the thoughts that you thought were true

You're a lonely cog on the sewing loom

Time is a machine that weaves a tapestry

Of love and greed, and blood and demons

Trust and secrets, just you keep it

Must we fear the dark?


Of your cold heart, no spark

Restarting your true dark

With mismatched animal parts

Cannibal starved, natural

Death is just the start


There's no need to be afraid, it's just dark science

There's no need to be afraid of the dark

There's no need to be afraid, it's just dark science

There's no need to be afraid of the dark
