20171115 - The Eye Behind The Eye

from The Song Diary II by Paleo

/

lyrics

Don’t go slow. Go faster.
Don’t go slow. Go faster.
I want you to crawl under my rainbow.
The keyhole of hunger is our only master.
Hunger for the muddy sparrow of sex.
Hunger for the wishbone of death.
The tangled trap that divides the pit
from the overgrown forest of breath.

Bring the coat off the lion of your life.
Paint me with your shadow. Freeze me in your roses.
Open the eye behind the eye
that can see through the high hurt and the low bliss.

Go fast. Don’t slow down.
Go fast. Don’t slow down.
Climb up the dress of the waterfall
and drink her until you drown.
In hunger for the town stitches of laughing
that sew that top eyelid of joy to the bottom of pain.
Hunger to see beyond the blood
and give the unknown a name.

Bring the coat off the lion of your life.
Paint me with your shadow. Freeze me in your roses.
Open the eye behind the eye
that can see through the high hurt and the low bliss.

Bring the coat off the lion of your life.
Paint me with your shadow. Freeze me in your roses.
Open the eye behind the eye
that can see through the high hurt and the low bliss.
