πŸ“œ Lyrics

I could not shift the shadow
Or form sugar for your halos
Channelled table-taps from ghost gods
Prowled and slept in steep ships

Mixed mythology with pathology
Tossed a coin and hymned the groves
Then did you scent the wind drop
And count the codes of seeds?

And did you call the night "bright"
And drink the sex of stars?
Or might you cartoon Judas
And cast in flower rooms?

Your breath flickered next to my breath
Humming noise and rhyming sweet songs
That your mouth had heaped up like rivers
And buried deeper in your hearts

Unzipped Γ†eons and cradled antlers
Opened your face and gave your grave
Opened True Moon opened thousand nights
And paths under mountain flames

Spelled the gardens as the cock crowed
And spoke slowly as the laughter rose
In dragonflies and pussy willows
Dreamt your lips like Kings and Queens

So open up your mouth
And in your invisible church
Under sun while cats purr
Gorgeous dreams under dark nights
And tender rhymes under swallow flight
And lovely bird-song sings

And what is the cost of sand in Anarch?
What is the cost of blood as mist?
What is the cost of the child in your heart
With his castle-face?
Who is the coat Teller wore?
And tell me your great name
In torrents of birds
Kiss me your real Name
And wait for the sun to bring you open

And bare your naked church
Into my mouth
And bare your naked church
Into my mouth

And bare your naked church
Into my mouth
And bare your naked church
Into my mouth

And bare your naked church
Into my mouth
And bare your naked church
Into my mouth

And bare your naked church
Into my mouth
