Tempter

Stereolab · Refried Ectoplasm (Switched On [1995]

Midway between happiness and sadness boiling but not overflowing

Fails to only make a better come back, more powerful and poignant and falls again

Destructive lust for life erected, on the verge pricked up like a picket

Fearing to respond to the tempting but malevolent call of the other side
