Lyrics Possibility of Lightning - Mary Halvorson

Possibility of Lightning

Nerves strike the death of a wife
Her arms spread apart
Yielding the revolving sky
This splendid object is
Swallowed by your voice
Deceptive euphoria
She remains stretched
By the force of your breath
The vulture star
Ignores the receding wave
Sound only comes after death
To lull to sleep
A misunderstanding
When pluto’s tears
Melt into song
Nerves strike the death of a wife
Her arms spread apart
Yielding the revolving sky
This splendid object is
Swallowed by your voice
Deceptive euphoria
She remains stretched
By the force of your breath
The vulture star
Ignores the receding wave
Sound only comes after death
To lull to sleep
A misunderstanding
When pluto’s tears
Melt into song
