[Verse 1]
I'm quick learning lessons from the devil
But can't decide whether I arrived or was contrived
I view so many faces from the tower, up above
Neglected inner wants and hungers for what I love

Cluttered bunched black-eyed and voiceless
I fill up the sugar cup to stay up all night in my black, up above
My face is a moon full of craters with crummy eyes
And cyst-thighs, a perfect beacon for the fictionettes

Who spread their legs wide open on the plasma
Embodiments of everything I hide about myself, today
Today, today...

[Verse 2]
Hips rashed, elastic, crowded
Barely wrenched into my upmost ambition for attraction
So I nurse fellow wilted and the withered
Shallow love, smut love, our love in my black, up above

My face is a room full of mirrors with crummy eyes
And blistered thighs, a bent brain full of lies
A beacon for the fiction body voodoo
Embodiments in morbid tense misplace your grace

To chase your copaface
Copaface
Copaface

Sonny Moore found club and mainstream stardom beginning in 2008, when he swapped his gig as post-hardcore frontman for From First to Last and created the dancefloor-oriented project, Skrillex. He initially used the name for live DJ sets, but in 2009 the project moved into the studio with Skrillex remixing the likes of Lady Gaga and Snoop Dogg.

Now he strives in mainstream success, playing monstrous live sets, releasing songs that rack up millions of listens and producing for the likes of Justin Bieber, A$AP Rocky, Ty Dolla Sign, and Ellie Goulding, and formed the duo Jack U with equally successful producer Thomas “Diplo” Pentz.
