if i could breathe your
smoke into my lungs
to hold your aching
in my chest
to shut the doors
between the worlds
to tear you from
tomorrow's breast
If I could find your devils' yellow eyes
I'd sink my teeth in every night
and fill my belly with their blood
until I make your sickness mine
I waited with you
staring at the clock
waiting
to carry you across
a on it's knees
with my fear coiled at my feet
one hundred freezing nights
waiting in the trees
I'll wait for you
growing cold
and lay down with you
in the abyss
what was strong
is withered and sick
prepared for the dirt
and that everything is
If I could find your devils' yellow eyes
I'd sink my teeth in every night
and fill my belly with their blood
until I make your sickness mine
where will you go
when you leave
where will I keep you
when you go
when that that last song
leaves your head
you were young when I was young
but you are the first to leave

I've known you a thousand times
by a thousand names
in a thousand places
but your voice will never change
your words shine like daggers
at the throat of the sleeping sun
you speak to me softly
but the words stay in my blood
there's no grace here
there's no wisdom in the air
there's nothing hiding
in the things we do in the dark
with the turn of your palm
you could quiet the oceans
and turn the trees to stone
where did you sleep
is it true that you slept?
that you slept behind the stone?
no you never did
then tell me where did you sleep
in cave at the breast of a wolf
and what did you eat?
the meat of the young and old
sun reddened skin
a blood reddened robe
snakes slither
down your throat
coiling inside you
they're heavy like boulders
like the fire and flies
that you breathe
