Night transforms the block below to incandescent dream
Glaze of rain turns avenue from street to mirrored stream
Blinking red lights swing above, reflecting in its sheen
Like bioluminescent fish, bravely surfacing
Black moon is coming down
Black moon has got you open
Act like you want it, the black moon coming down
Always lost and never found
Dawn is for the working man and bus stop cigarettes
Squares, they rule the daytime hours, then go home to their pets
Evening brings the diners, dropping wallets in their wake
And after hours, it's finally ours until that morning breaks
Black moon is coming down
Black moon has got you open
Act like you want it, the black moon coming down
Always lost and never found

Always on Fire

Fresh hells, new horizons
You can shake or face the lions
The city's cold, feeds on desire
The city's cold, but always on fire
Always on fire
You're afraid, but you cannot go home
They still think you're dead. Don't ever let them know
That town was too small, and too quiet for gunfire
So you burned down the house that was always on fire
Always on fire

Maw

Down to the river in silence we go
Bound to the terrible violence we know
We hold them beneath to be swallowed alive
Oh, the things that we're willing to do to survive
Back to the river in silence again
Haunted by ghosts of innumerable men
We look to the skies, but never to pray
Cursing the gods who made us this way
I wasn't born bad, but been bad since I don't know when
There'll be time to suffer, time and time again
I've drowned enough to fill the ocean, but the emptiness in me
Cannot be laid to rest or sent to sea
What will become of the man that you knew?
Before he went bad and before they went blue?
Will he survive in the church of your heart?
Was this the lie that was doomed from the start?
Into the river and washed out to sea

DAMIEN DONE
DAMIEN DONE is the nom de plume of Damien Moyal, best known as frontman of iconic 90s hardcore punk bands As Friends
Rust.
Here, Moyal takes a sharp and decided turn from the angst of his past, instead crooning unnerving, voyeuristic tales over bleak numbers that at once touch on the doom and drawl of swampy grunge and the cold, blue sneer of dark 80s pop and post-punk.
