lyrics

We have shears and knives to strip you of your shape,
There’s no light in our windows.
No glow in our caves.
Oh - why do sleep among the trees?
My - why do you sneak off with the trees!
Who put their lightning fingers over their black hole eyes,
they won’t look again at your heart’s suicide!
Why do you grow ugly wings and fangs?
Why do you hold and cling to every curve and name?
Everything we cut from you, everything we eat of you,
will only leave us wanting more and more and more and more...

And that old crow who ate the acorn’s belly whole
we put him down in the hole of a guitar amp, he drones
Ooooh! He screams and bellows out and sings for the world to go without!
These planets have no grace, no waving of sines,
who you orbit, who you king...woe us stupid things -
wild white tundras who criminalize the sun,
shapes cut from laughter, shapes come undone -
Everything we cut from you, everything we eat of you,
will only leave us wanting more and more and more and more...
