The Truly Civilized – A Low Key Music Selection

The truly civilized keep our eyes upon the prize like thieves and housewives keep money on their minds. The truly civilized wear our hearts between our thighs, unduly criticized for being so refined. Though oftentimes despised by those too shy to fantasize, if we ever spread our legs they’d come inside. You can see it in their eyes, so quick to blink they can’t disguise that they would trade their lives for one moment of mine.

The truly civilized like lows and highs from sex to genocide, and laughing like we’e never going to die. It’s true we bat our eyes and plagiarize ripped jeans and suicide, but whoever moves the moon can set the tide.
