i like the devil |
Mother laid her elbows on the bed |
Whispering the wishes to the threads |
Weaving in the weight of all our dread |
Wiping up the stains of our regret |
Heal her hands by kneading up the bread |
Cleaning off her fingers as she wept |
Lurk within her gleaming silhouette |
Then seal in our wonder to ferment |
I, like the devil, can fly |
And I read her sweet mind last night, and |
I, like God, can fly |
And I held a candle over her fright |
What is happiness but a word |
Spoken from on high for what it’s worth |
Flown beneath the wings of little birds |
But I have felt the wind crawl where we’re cursed |
Find us in the folded parts she pressed |
Lying in positions, like we’ve slept |
Find us in the hallows of her chest |
Lying in positions, like we’ve slept |
I, like the devil, can fly |
And I read her sweet mind last night, and |
I, like God, can fly |
And I held a candle over her fright |
I, like the devil, can fly |
