Cotopaxi |
| When sanskrit was my mother tongue |
| Scarabs filled my pillow |
| Tarmac strips to pave for them |
| And thrones from which to teach |
| And in that pulse the future said |
| The story had been spun |
| You wet your bed so sleep in it Cards can’t make a house |
| And up that hill go the last of my crumbs |
| We’ll be lucky if we eat tonight |
| And up that hill go the last of my crumbs |
| That’s why I’ll magnify a hole… |
| When light years came |
| And light years passed |
| Tugging on the brink |
| Spoils reported missing |
| Put down in its sleep |
| Strangled in the background |
| Fitted for a mask |
| The future won’t believe you |
| Past the ransom fast |
| And up that hill go the last of my crumbs |
| We’ll be lucky if we eat tonight |
| And up that hill go the last of my crumbs |
| That’s why I’ll magnify a hole… |
| Don’t beat around the pulpit |
| There is no lost and found |
| Where is the devil waiting |
| Trying to disguise… |
| I’ve seen what you used to look like |
| But down here you won’t survive |
| I’ve got the weight of half of the world |
| Don’t stop dragging the lake |
| I won’t come home |
| If you can’t come home |
| Even if you make a grave with my name |
| You better keep on looking for me |
