You are pathology incarnate The sweat on your brow trick of the light You were the first female But you are no woman Just a beast in the shape of a girl Plucked one year before ripeness A major at everything A minor one way Your eyes betray your true nature Sharp, louche and depravity reined Soot-yellow and one dollar green Some might call it hazel I call it dirt against your aryan gold hair If you offered me fruit I’d force myself to take a bite So my soul won’t witness my guts feasted in the gutter Carnivorously carnival-carved cadaver Stamped under your cigarette-stained heels Cherry cola chipped out of chapped lips Cos I didn’t dare take a chockfull You’re the first girl who has ever touched me But I’m just the fly on your fruit Lilith Haefelin The girl before Eve.

Girl before Eve
You are pathology incarnate The sweat on your brow trick of the light You were the first female But you are no woman Just a beast in the shape of a girl Plucked one year before ripeness A major at everything A minor one way Your eyes betray your true nature Sharp, louche and depravity reined Soot-yellow and one dollar green Some might call it hazel I call it dirt against your aryan gold hair If you offered me fruit I’d force myself to take a bite So my soul won’t witness my guts feasted in the gutter Carnivorously carnival-carved cadaver Stamped under your cigarette-stained heels Cherry cola chipped out of chapped lips Cos I didn’t dare take a chockfull You’re the first girl who has ever touched me But I’m just the fly on your fruit Lilith Haefelin The girl before Eve.
