Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro] Rust on the slide Blood in the sand Welcome, child Give me your hand (come on) [Verse 1] Mud on my boots Stain on my soul Jackknife grin At the edge of the hole Cornfield breathing Rows lean in Swear I saw God With a hog-tied grin Swing-set squeaking Counting crows Carved my name Where the willow grows You wanna play tag? You’re always “it” Run through the dark Hear the branches split (shhh) [Chorus] Backwoods playground of knives Round and round ‘til it bites If you fall, you don’t rise We draw halos out of flies Backwoods playground of sin Once you’re in, you’re in Hear that call from the pines Hide-and-seek with your life on the line (on the line) [Verse 2] Girl voice sweet Like creekland rain But her tongue tastes Just like pain Braids and a bow And a Bible tale She hums about heaven While she trims your nails Boy in a cap Spits black chew Says, “Mama went missin’ Same path as you” Ferris wheel bones In a clearing of ash Every turn squeals Like a hog at the lash (hey) [Chorus] Backwoods playground of knives Round and round ‘til it bites If you fall, you don’t rise We draw halos out of flies Backwoods playground of sin Once you’re in, you’re in Hear that call from the pines Hide-and-seek with your life on the line [Bridge] [wind howls, chain rattle, distant calliope spirals out of tune] Close your eyes Count to ten Open up You’re gone again Hopscotch squares Drawn in red Every jump One step from dead (woah) [Chorus] Backwoods playground of knives Round and round ‘til it bites If you fall, you don’t rise We draw halos out of flies Backwoods playground of sin Once you’re in, you’re in Hear that laugh in the pines Tag, you’re it ‘til the end of time (’til the end of time)

rap, Experimental horrorcore-country crossover with male/female call-and-response vocals; creaking swings, distant coyotes, and warped circus organs under a lurching, half-time trap bounce. Verses close-up and whispered, then explode into shouted group hooks. Layer chains, rusty metal hits, kids’ laughter reversed, and a low, droning ambience that swells into a chaotic, distorted climax., horrorcore, hardcore, noise, dark ambient, country
