lyrics

[L]
Return!
The touch of a ghost, deceived to feel.
A hundred devils’ liturgy I sing.
I lick the honey flung from your teeth.
Strip down, show me your true form.
A specter never seen.

[M]
I am a thousand cunning serpents
With two thousand gleaming eyes.
Run, run away.
I am there.

[R]
Self-devourer, she slithers rings around you.
She holds you tighter.
Every ounce of strength is struggle.
Exhausted fighter.

[S] / [P]
Close your sunken eyes. / Open up your eyes.
Bury her deep inside. / Wider than the sky.
Cloak her with false pride. / Dissipate the lie.
Lie with her beside. / From the darkness rise.
Someday she will hide. / Can’t you hear me cry?
Someday when you die. / Can’t you see the light?

[M]
You have soaked me in.
I am Bathsheba in the tub,
And the water in the bath.
I brought you inside.
Run, run to me.
I am here.
I am what you have become.
I am ten thousand raging serpents
With a million blazing eyes.

[A]
The Möbius strip.
The Lissajous curve.
I walk the same road, over and over.
I have been here before, and will come back again.
I’ve created my own world without end.
Amen.
Walk the circle.
The cycle.
The circle.
The endless cycle.
The circle.
The cycle.
Eternal circle.
