you wanna know how I know that you’re here? I can tell by the temperature in a desolate smoke-filled suite my pulse is a buzzing heaviness come here right now tonight we try it out I love it when you think too much its alright if you wanna stare wraith with the revenant hand its spooky how you touch me there you are that type of girl now I’m taking my glasses off hey when you walk through me its spooky how you twist your pearls you know I’m not ashamed can you follow directions? I’ve alway been kinda bad at sharing but you are rather expensive don’t care about worse for wear I know what I want are we not here for perfection? are we not here to impress ourselves? it’s cool how you do that showing up out of nowhere hey wraith with the revenant hand its spooky when you touch me there you are my actress and now I’m taking chances hey when you walk through me its spooky how you twist those pearls you know I’m not ashamed can you follow directions? wraith with the revenant hand its spooky when I touch you also you are my type of girl wraith light and partly invisible too hey when you walk through me you’re such a spooky little girl you know you don’t scare me I’m the one in control, just so you know...

actions and reasons have no room in my estate scheming in headspace all overcomplicates nothing ever fit the plan turned to shit I’m tired of the masquerade love’s hidden blade smiling when she walks away leave me alone I don’t want to stay oh how I loathe when I get this way indulge is to fade I made you a nocturne with leaps that are fun to play lonely explanations the bathwater's red today nothing ever fit the plan turned to shit I’m tired of the cas-ca-ra love’s hidden blade smiling when she throws away leave me alone I don’t want to stay oh how I loathe when I get this way indulge is to fade

forbidden deeds if you say so I will do anything to make this your last wish marid materialize at will you have no idea with whom you’re dealing with people try to catch me but I’m too powerful there is no defense when I turn you against yourself we have tricks so old Muhammad made a point to stay away from us Companions of the Smokeless Fire We are Undercover Jinn you will never snuff us out ancient flames glowing eyes of blue on the knife you wrote the name of God summon the one trapped inside the blade beautiful heiress nightshade on your arm she is what you wanted highly visiable you’re made of clay we’ll never bow to you just because the maker told us to shape-shifters whispers of Shaitan forbidden deeds taking you down with us

about

D'Arclon is an old family name, and is the chosen moniker for the shared project of Zach Landreneau and Jon Dollar.

Undercover Jinn: Volume One is a retrofit/fusion of Arabic folklore and its juxtaposition against Western consumerism and the modern corporate ramp-up post 9/11.
