| It wouldn’t leave me like it left them
|
| Wait by the river, I’ll bring her tethered
|
| I want you to survive
|
| Bone crushing bone, the roots exposed
|
| Hot on the season, sweat off this fever
|
| I want you to survive
|
| She said, «The Earth will provide
|
| As long as you feel its grasp
|
| Oh, nothing is had with promise of more.»
|
| Let’s do it before she asks
|
| Because the question won’t be in words
|
| Well then, let’s tie her up, make this quick
|
| Here, grab hold and I will fix the stitch
|
| I kept stabbing at your chest, like diving in water
|
| Your rib cage denied me, but I would dig harder
|
| I remember every word
|
| Stumbling out of that mouth
|
| I had to witness the last fumes
|
| The last fumes that your lungs soak up
|
| If we let you loose what would you do with your hands?
|
| We tied you up because if you had the chance
|
| You’d slaughter every one of us
|
| Would you let us live?
|
| I remember every word
|
| Out of that mouth
|
| I had to witness the last fumes
|
| I remember every word
|
| I had to witness the last fumes
|
| Fumes your lungs soak up
|
| Winding down the cosmic clock
|
| We wither when we grow up
|
| Winding down the cosmic clock
|
| We start to bloom just before we rot
|
| Winding down the cosmic clock
|
| We wither when we grow up
|
| Dream within a dream
|
| When it ends, we turn to dust
|
| When we rest, the world that we seek is within you and me
|
| It’s held like a thought and we traveled this far
|
| Don’t let it go to waste
|
| Find a way to leave this place
|
| It’s held like a thought and we traveled this far
|
| Don’t let it go to waste
|
| Find a way to leave this place |
