sliemm The Floor picks up where the Cure's Pornography left off, but with a bit of glam metal thrown in, but funnelled through a vacuum tube in a 1973 synth from Slovenia.

lyrics

THE FLOOR

I am burning at both ends the wax is running thin
It drips onto my skin and burns the beast inside me

A flame twice as bright, dies twice as fast
The scars I wear like insignia on my arms

I am the floor that you stand upon
I am a lover, dead and gone
I am the rat I am the creep I am the scum
Dance to the sound of the confession song

Et tu Brutus?
I can’t do this
Et tu Brutus?
I can’t do this anymore

The medicine is sinking in
Hallow be my company
I am my God, a poisoned clown
An ageing whore, a ghost of town

The defaced grave to the fallen brave
An impurity in a symphony
The last, unwanted dinner guest
The defect of my mother’s breast

I am the floor that you stand upon
I am a lover dead and gone
I am the rat I am the creep I am the scum
Dance to the sound of the confession song

Et tu Brutus?
I can’t do this
Et tu Brutus?
I can’t do this anymore
