Lyrics Ethric Double - These Arms Are Snakes

Ethric Double

They write the songs
And you sing the passages at night
They hold the notes high
You keep them down so it’s hard
Do you cover them up so they can’t hear them?
They can’t hear because they don’t believe them
They don’t believe it because they can’t see it
Do they cover their eyes?
I think you’re in the right place
The shawl over your face is so long
Black and white tooth coat charms
You placed along the bones of your arms
Did you cover them up so they can’t see them?
They can’t see them if they don’t believe them
They don’t believe them because they can’t see them
Do they cover their eyes?
Small lakes, they pour out of my lungs
Down to feed tones in holes
Of depleted roots of the ground
Dug by relics in tombs
Altered and reborn from blight
That was hidden from the eye
My tongue cleanses shapes and encourages return
I am full
I am safe
I am more empty than known
