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 |
