Semi-Precious Stone |
| Semi-precious stone for Cassandra |
| Semi-precious stone for your drugs |
| Semi-precious stone for science |
| Semi-precious stone for your kiss |
| But I am standing on a pile of diamonds |
| That I would like to submit |
| For your totem poles |
| For every time we hated the police |
| Or had to get out of the city to get free |
| A semi-precious stone, semi-precious stone |
| For every thumb we ran along the crease |
| I am standing on a pile of diamonds |
| That i would like to submit |
| And lover, it was so windy |
| The night was filled with furious trees |
| The streets were strewn with broken branches |
| Oh, save me from this conspiring breeze |
| This is the sound |
| This is the sound |
| This is the sound |
| This is the sound |
| This is the sound |
| This is the sound |
| Of the sky foaming at the mouth |
| This is the sound that I choose to make, now |
| This is the sound that I choose to make |
| Surrounded with tools and |
| No longer suitable for carving faces |
| Swinging down |
| Through the air |
| Like a branch |
| Through the air |
| Until my basic human bones |
| Are like a hammer |
| Like a hammer on a semi-precious stone |
| This is the sound |
| This is the sound |
| This is the sound |
| This is the sound |
| This is the sound |
| This is the sound |
| Of the sky foaming at the mouth |
| So hey, you can keep Cassandra |
| And you can keep your kiss |
| You should save your energy |
| For the new apocalypse |
