Eight Bones

Eight finger bones
Lead the needle through
Embroider the skin with cure
Come through
Eight finger bones
Draw a cross at heart
Scatter myrrh in wounds
Rub balm
Eight finger bones
Split a shrine in half
Swell a wailing womb
With life
Eight finger bones
Smother ears in wax
Pull the crying root
Delirium
Eight finger bones
Foil the mouth with gold
Hallucinate truth
Choke on your tears and wine
Speak in tongues till come down
Grin and fall, take it all
Rest your head my child
In delirium we thrive

Motherland
03:50
|

No matter how deep you dive
The ancient eye can always see
The iridescence of your tears
My riddle unfolds in time
Takes you far into the right
State of mind to break the charm
Or deeper
I understand
Eat from my hand
It's not all just sand
It's my motherland
Your shelter, skin, shield, your pride
Words shatter teeth when you lie
The water is high so lay it out
Before I take you by surprise
I understand
Eat from my hand
It's not all just sand
It's my motherland

Bitter Almonds
04:01
|
|||
You breathe, you try
To poison me
As we creep
Under the almond tree
You dance, you try
To lure me in
Withershins
Round the almond tree
You writhe, you bite
Lay with me
Feed the ground
Mouthfuls of blood
And you sigh
Withering
As we slide
All wide-eyed
Bitter taste
My turn to dance
Braid your spell into my hair
Hollow gaze
The skin fades

Saccades

Saccades saccades saccades
Cutting lines into my face
Saccades
Cutting lines
It's okay, it's okay
I'll be quiet if you say
It's okay
I won't cry
Porcelain eyes broken to shards
Looking at me down from the corner they're in
Porcelain eyes looking so shy
Broken by me, taken away to unsee
Decades decades decades
Cutting lines into my face
It's decay
I run dry
Saccades saccades
And you thought you left no trace
It's okay
I know you tried
Porcelain eyes broken to shards
Looking at me down from the corner they're in
Porcelain eyes looking so shy
Broken by me, taken away to unsee
Porcelain eyes stepped on so hard
Edges too sharp, biting in my feet
Porcelain eyes crushed into dust
Put the shimmer on the mirror in your hand

Thief
04:25
|

Thief thief thief, come to me
Give me your grief, it’s too heavy for you
Thief thief thief, draw in
Your skull is bursting at the seams
Lies won't hide the tremor in hand, cold sweat
Are you scared?
While you sleep I take off your guilt
I wash it in water and put on anew
While you dream I soothe your skin
It's sore from fences and thorns
Despite your disguise they know your voice
It's quiet and coarse
Are you there?
Thief thief thief, don't hurry to leave
Your hunger for treasure I'm willing to feed
Thief thief thief, surrender to me
Your loot is safer with me

Madstone
04:24
|

Good night wolf bite
One of a kind
Lie low, wipe all traces of a fight
Charcoal blind foal
Limps by her side
Bow and arrow lead them to the hole
She may be the child of spring
Let her in to greet her king
She wore a madstone
Skin tight moonlight
Along her spine
Fireflies swarm wild in a chilling rite
Warm ink, sweet milk
Run down her thighs
Boil glow unknown, simmer until dawn
She may be the child of spring
Let her in and hear her sing
She wore a madstone

Sheer Soul
04:55
|

Last night I wore a sheer soul
I wore perfect fear to show you
I know you
I know how to hide in the land of all right
But no sight, no sight of that from here
Nothing but me
Where are you?
Among the shrieks
Among the freaks
Find me
It will be all right, all right
Unlike last night

Gaslight
04:52
|
|||
Tongue overgrown with a wire
Four letter word of a liar
Warm ruby throat of a siren
Moan of a drone in the highland
Kai, Kai
Under the gaslight
Untired until over
Tongue overgrown with a wire
Four letter word of a liar
Torn underside of a thunder
Sore powder horn of a lover
Kai, Kai
Under the gaslight
The rage welled over
An old warmonger
The rage welled over
And terrified her

Lynchpin
03:15
|
|||
Watch it
Slither down
The temples
That's where it enters
Units
Of precious time
Like desire
They all expire
Touch it
Grow inside
How serpentine
It has become
Tempted
To take the lynchpin out
Of one's drive
To kill the fire
