Cool cat, king of the pack.
Cigarette was turning to ash in the tray, like his soul, it was burning away.
Quick look at his hair in the chrome,
Fresh grease through a dirty comb.
He was cold to the touch, she was bad to the bone.
Silver Tooth and Shadowplay, ages old, would serenade.
As Mama said, the fire was burning bright,
The hour has come to pass, it's time to die.
Driving like a man insane.
Lightning running through his veins.
While just a boy, he'd long forgot his name.
Lady in a silver dress.
She walked around like a baroness.
The girl would take it all and nothing less.
Racing fast with his baby beside.
Saw the devil on a Saturday night.
Now the power within resides.
The Silver Tooth was glowing bright.
Little Nina was a girl at the time.
Growing up with a sinister mind.
In a silk silhouette of a dress, that was it.
Found a friend in the darkest of times.
The lost boy, who could stop on a dime.
They could find a better life.

This album is just perfect in a minimalistic sense. There's nothing you could take away from it without making it worse and nothing to add that would make it better. 10/10 avalun
