Mommy says she might fly today mommy's favorite plane is bed mommy's swimming in place again silver bullet straight ahead Lay down and say to the ever-loyal decay O come and play in the garden of the self-medicated Lay down and say to the ever-loyal decay O come and play in the garden of the self-medicated

Under the waters He belongs with me in the whirl winding of the sea with a cork as a top bottled up and floating on Hiding in chaos He unfolds to me in the twilight of memory black stork with a child letting go and flying wild I'll burn to ashes for Him He'll collect me and use me up and in the darkness of night He will whisper my name in lust Lovers united by a pact sealed with blood taken horses that gallop on far away from the town golden chalice and blackouts I'll burn to ashes for Him He'll collect me and use me up and in the darkness of night He will whisper my name in loving lust...

It wasn't my choice to take the first train back and it happened of course on the same day your father had died It wasn't by chance that the railroad got shifted at night but a true romance were our beauty marks perfectly aligned I'll float at your feet like a shadow I'll grow to be grey-scaled and shallow It wasn't a lie I keep my promises when I said you'd get by and learn to cherish loneliness is at your feet like a shadow I'll grow to be grayscaled and shallow you'll burn and destroy like a vandal i'll pour thick and slow like a candle
