Black
Acres Whirlwind
Take me there
Where I
will be
His lady fair
Sheets of night
Hiding us
Gusts of
wind
Riding us
I'm blown away
Into his hands
I'm weak and
high
Can barely stand
In the web
Of dizzy leaves
Virgins
all
Elude the trees
Touch me now
Touch me
The black
acres are claiming me
They're claiming me
He holds me up
Like a
babe
Pressing close
I can't behave
I need to have
This little
death
I'm up against
His downy chest
In the web
Of dizzy leaves
Virgins
all
Elude the trees
The chill is flush
With burning flesh
It's so
refined
This little death
Touch me now
Touch me
The black
acres are claiming me
They're claiming me
Touch me now
Touch me
The black
acres are claiming me
They're claiming me
Black acres
I'm running
Away from home
Black
acres
And the wind
The wind is blowin'
Black acres
And the
weathervane
Its heathen song
Lulls the world
With silver tongue
Touch me now
Touch me
The black
acres are claiming me
They're claiming me |
Bayonne
By the time I reach tomorrow
I won't be me any way
And I'm not collecting sorrow
Don't disengage
You can't finger what you filter
When it travels like the clouds floating away
I thought he'd never take it far
I can see where this is going
As the undertow is pulling me down
With your cross examination
I'm receding in the teeth of your plow
But I won't dig my own grave
By the time I reach tomorrow
Will you be there in the you
Is your pride too big to swallow
Know what's true
Did you figure I would falter
When I travel like the clouds floating away
I thought he'd never take it far
I can feel I'm getting smaller
As your twisting every word that I say
There's a snare in the forest
Under brush where you want me to play
But I won't dig my own grave
No I won't
Won't dig my own grave

Bend your mind
Let me bend your mind
Just give up your body
If you give it a try
I know you won't be sorry
Filling inside turn you outside
Find you shining
Spanning acres crashing breakers
Can be blinding
Ride
Sweet smelling ride
Your shoulder blades like sails
And your mouth my rosary
That terrifies my tail
The feral dance of infinity
Limbs are singing velvet stinging
Seashell pining
Dripping sapling nature grappling
Tear the binding
Wide
Spread so wide
I wanna hear you sigh
Just give me your body
I want to see it in the light
Surrender to debauchery
Bend your mind dear
Now your mine dear
Earth is grinding
Keep on beaming
Are we dreaming are we dying
Ride
Sweet swelling ride
Ride
Sweet swelling ride
On the verge dear
As we merge dear
Now we're flying
Sacred bailing so enthralling
Mystifying
Ride
To the other side
Ride
'Til we're sanctified
On the verge dear
As we merge dear
Now we're flying
Sacred balling so enthralling
Mystified
Minds are bending happy ending
Silver lining
Ride

Tides of the moon
I can hear the wild waves break
This island of bone
Below the swell the stars are waking
No matter how much I shake
i'm gonna find home
Though I've been overtaken
By the tides of the moon
I'm swimming against
The tides of moon
You'll hear from me yet
I'll get to you soon
Savage cities on my trail
Won't leave me alone
Terrorize the song I'm veiling
Even though my arms are frail
I'm gonna find home
You know my faith ain't failing
'Lo the tides of moon
I'm swimming against
The tides of moon
I'll get to you yet
You'll hear from me soon
Follow every wave that traces my name
You know
That I have been detained
And I feel I could die
Swimming against
The tides of moon
You'll hear from me yet
I'll get to you soon
Swimming against
The tides of moon
You'll hear from me yet
I'll get to you
Get to you, oh...

Hearts are open graves
Take me to your dark places
Below the paint your secret faces
Together we'll inter the bones
Clandestine shutters overthrown
Never be ashamed my love
All hearts are open graves
All hearts are open graves
Never be ashamed my love
All hearts are open graves
Take me to your dark places
Like an asp i'll suck the traces
Meet you there beneath the crisis
Slowly melt the ancient ices
Never be ashamed my love
All hearts are open graves
All hearts are open graves
Never be ashamed my love
All hearts are open graves
I'll hold you there and stare right in
Unstitch the letter you've sewn within
And in your midnight dress
Blessed nakedness
Never be ashamed my love
All hearts are open graves
All hearts are open graves
Never be ashamed my love
All hearts are open graves
Never be ashamed my love
All hearts are open graves
And no one can be saved
Never be ashamed my love
All hearts are open graves

Tope of weeds
Night cracked like a skull
Made the moon convulse
Wrapped its chilly tongue around my mast
A fortnight it would be
Since I'd been out at sea
Ne'er another soul had crossed my path
Ne'er another soul had crossed my path
I was hauling salt
In my bleached and battered boat
Trawling just to pass the restless night
When I felt the queerest lug
Against that fraying cord
Reeling in a devastating sight
In the brackish sound
Somebody had drowned
She wrapped her raven rings around my line
She wrapped her raven rings around my line
In a tangled open dress
The most comely bloodless breasts
A distant look was frozen in her eyes
A fiend possessed my soul
As I helped her to disrobe
A rope of weeds was woven round her thighs
A rope of weeds was woven round her thighs
My ill and frenzied heart
And the quiet lapping song
Beaten by the splendor of her hips
I had to lay her down
Atop those briny beds
And press my mouth against her silent lips
The frigid moon was green
Upon my wicked scene
My wasted angel shimmering in sand
I had to be with her
And leave the world behind
I knew that no one else could understand
And I slipped her silver palm inside my hand
Married to the bower
I threw our bodies overboard
Our hearts were bound by heavy rusted chain
Now I roam the ocean floor
With the lady I adore
This is where we remain
This is where we remain
This is where we remain
This is where we remain

Dream within a dream
( Edgar Allan Poe )
Take this kiss upon the brow
And in parting from you now
Thus much let me avow
You are not wrong, who deem
That my days have been a dream
Yet if hope has flown away
In a night or in a day
In a vision or in none
Is it therefore the less gone
All that we see or seem
All that we see or seem
Is but a dream within a dream
I stand amid the roar
Of a surf tormented shore
And I hold within my hands
Grains of the golden sand
Oh how they creep
Through my fingers to the deep
While I weep while I weep
Oh God can I not grasp
Them with a tighter clasp
Oh God can I not save
One from the pitiless wave
Is all that we see or seem
Is all that we see or seem
But a dream within a dream
Dream, dream, dream ...

Barely recognize you
Feel like I waited forever for you to arrive
You look too long perhaps you lost your drive
You were touched by too many hands
Why'd you get soft, I can't understand
They made you aplologize
I can barely recognize you
You know death should inspire you
You let his love paralyze you
You followed their flags
Now you're flapping in the rain
You took the main drag, denying the coarse terrain
You were once a firebrand
How'd you burn out
I don't understand
You brought me liberation
Fought the contamination
You left a trail like Dillinger
Then you joined the congregation

Fright night
Black-out, the power's been tripped
Better not slip, watch your step
Quiet, someone might hear
They know that you're there
'Cause your flashlight's dim and flickering
Holy mother run for cover
Hot on my shoulder
Far from over
It goes on, on, on, on, on
Fright night, won't leave you alone
Fright night, you may never get home
Dead night, the chicks are coming to roost
You hear the most horrible sounds
Your heart, how heavy it pounds
You fear the worse is yet to come
Listen, what's that shadow on the ceiling
Who's that, whispering your brain sick
Who's there, hanging by my window
Swinging patiently
The taste that's been left in your mouth
Of rot but for acid a drought
Your head, you will never empty it out
Listen what's that shadow on the ceiling
Who's that fingering my brainstem
Who's there hanging round my window
Swinging patiently
Come no closer brisket choker
Boxed dog scratching
Earth collapsing
Sky is gone, gone, gone, gone, gone,
Gone, gone, gone, gone, gone,

Queen of the meadow
I'm in league
With the queen of the
meadow
I'm in league
With the queen of the meadow
I bring her starms to
feed her thirst
I bring her seed to swallow
She rides bareback through it
all
And whispers by the willow
The queen of the meadow
With her widow's
heart she sings her song
To the stars she carries on
And it's peaceful in
her loving arms
Peaceful in the meadow
Peaceful in her loving
arms
Peaceful in the meadow
I'm in league
With the queen of the
meadow
And as the sun I rise upon
The pastures of her charms
Riveted to
her mystery beds
Drawn to her fragrant sorrow
The queen of the
meadow
With her widow's heart she sings her song
To the stars she carries
on
And it's peaceful in her loving arms
Peaceful in the meadow
Peaceful
in her loving arms
Peaceful in the meadow
And I'm burning in her fiery
fields
And I'm sleeping in the meadow
And i'm burning in her loving
arms
The queen of the meadow |
Cities will fall
Born of your rib was my first
catacomb
Back raging inside you
I finally felt home
How could I prepare
for the final feedback
Now I'm scanning the heavens and ballin the jack
We
traded our secrets, melted the chill
He wept in my water
He's rising it
still
Sucked on the marrow until we were blind
In the wake of this
nightmare I'm losing my mind
You said cities will fall
Cities will
fall
Have no regrets in spite of it all
As the walls tumble down
I
won't rest 'til I've found you
Parallel wave length anointed musk
waves
Pornography gardens winding our maze
Delivered my shame to your
altar divine
And now I'm your prisoner
Embalmed in your shrine
You said
cities will fall
Cities will fall
Have no regrets in spite of it all
As
the walls tumble down
I won't rest 'til I've found you
My sacrosanct
priest, my medicine man
Bathing me, blazing me utopian
Apocalypse
rising
We saw it play out
Chasing the moon
Your siren's devout
You
said cities will fall
Cities will fall
Have no regrets in spite of it
all
As the walls tumble down
I'll be wrapped around you |
