You think you are the sun divine I look at you and you multiply I’m hungry but I can’t eat Give me those eyes will you
My best friend, I was so afraid Lay beside you, your body like a warm sandy beach My body like washed up **** trying to get free
I was looking for salvation in the rock pools Little snails and ***** would cling and pick at me Til I finally gave in You turned me evergreen
How long til the moon pulls you away Leaves me to rest again, dehydrates me into a skeleton serene How long til your silky arms stretch out again And tickle me into an object of a lust, desires obscene
I feel you close Like echoes in a tunnel seeming to whisper in your ear But you’ve a long way yet to grow And know just what this strange **** craves
It isn’t simple as giving orders, or showering me with delight The heart of the matter lies in the murky deep, The root causes the illness I wear from head to feet
Dissolve me in heavy salt and weightless oil Purify me on mountaneous rock Shake me in the willows endless, indifferent sorrow Throw me away to make sure I’m for keeps
And maybe then after years of struggle Summers burnt and winters melted, I will still play my vengeful game and give you eyes that say “I’m better, you will never win.”
