Description
This is a demo of a song we are planning to put on a full length in the next year. The song is about a buffalo that is abandoned when a herder's land is taken back by the state. The story describes the buffalo's remains, and the colony of larvae living inside.
Lyrics
faithful, you were a buffalo once. now a leather bound skeleton, a tenement to this once open land. there's more than enough to stay alive, burrowing in this cadaver. save your strength join the ranks of flies, with no shame. trade this safe place for brittle wings? what am I left with? i'd rather dine alone, bon appetite the dead don't welcome me i'm in your heart, i'm still alive. thanks to you faithful buffalo. digging tunnels in the dark. a pipeline lays across your fields blasting the shale off the face of your hills filling the hollowed halls of your body sometimes a heart is just a heart an empty chamber, someday will be gone not an organ that speaks for love. faithful, you were a buffalo once now a leather bound skeleton a tenement to this once open land.
