Black Moth
Album • 2018
Oh Aphrodite, how is it you possess me? I bear your name, and it leaves me riddled with shame You gave me the fork to twist in the old ulcers That lurk deep within mortal souls This sad girl This lean carrion Still, bloodless meat rack Purpose I have none No Trembling Gives me away I just wanna shake,shake, shake Shake with my disgrace Oh Aphrodite, what did your grace want with me? I bear your name, I wear my entrails on display You gave me the fork to twist in the old ulcers That lurk deep within mortal souls Free from joy, I may sing Songs a child blessed Would never dare to bring My cool palms will never clam With sickness, terror, hate or desire I'll never raise a hand I accuse the heavens. Threaten me with plagues I dare you, Black Stone Goddess Give me all you've got Come on you Men, slaughter your beast! Sacrifice! Daughters of nobles sing your hymns, with cursed tongues! Oh Aphrodite, what did your grace want with me? I wear a veil for my unacceptable face Holy wisdom is not clear like water, but thick and dank like blood

I cannot see you But I can feel your Wide encircling reflections Twisting Slowly, bruising Everything in your path Moon bow, scarred indigo. With this second-hand glow We are losing the stars But you, only you, remain Desolate Goddess Your craters tilt sullenly Dripping their light right down Just like an old, broken tap A light you can suffer Safe in its secrecy A white excuse for me Creator of deepest shadows Our pock-marked watcher Unrequited companion In unimaginable solitude A witching hour flower Moon bow, scorched indigo.

Heard you say she's crazy when she doubts what you say But you've been lying to her every day How's a girl to trust when you've betrayed her that way? You've fooled you last and there'll be hell to pay Furies of vengeance are on their way So I'd get down on your knees and pray Wide open and woken, our calls will pierce the night We'll tear your dreams apart with blood-curdling cries Mothers of the Earth and Sisters of the Stone Born of their own broken brothers' bones Patient desert dwellers howling in the dunes They're wild and wicked and coming for you Wide open and woken, our shrieks will slice the night Snakes for hair and blood-shot eyes we terrorise your dreams Torches, whips and cups of venom at our sides Seething swarm of insects, we'll annihilate dishonest minds We're the keepers of the Water, we're the pulsing veins of the Earth Justice is the feast we desire, to the music of the cracking of skulls

The crows are thrown from the hill like a handful of seeds Sowing the sky with their cries ringing in my ears Early winter, before you and after your I carry their calls and fragments of carcass Glowing flood pools puncture the black earth below A slow woman, a slower girl Peering down into that green world through my glass-white face No roof, just walls and sketch of a window Buried hoards, crumpled by time, all collected In my portable shrine: sheep's teeth, belly up boats Dusk rabbits, too quick to see clearly White pylon hairs pulled taut across dark fields I'm drawn between grid points, like lookin into a flower I lick the salt and grit left on my lips Peering down into that green world through my glass-white face No roof, just walls and sketch of a window Buried hoards, crumpled by time, all collected In my portable shrine: sheep's teeth, belly up boats Dusk rabbits, too quick to see clearly If i find myself another green world, how would it feel To look in your eyes and buy back time? I was happy then, but I didn't know Crumpled by time, I: just stopped looking and I'll never start again So I'll be chasing those dusk rabbits Until the day I die

Our rising waves of satin Your frozen Isis speaks Her flickering tongue mad with piety Her body the gnosis that you seek Splayed breast and curled spine Your ever-giving concubine Her succulent wounds map the heavens Her painted iris glows Life-sized and perfectly formed That's magic in her skin Her organs are her gifts to you Go in, go in, go in The face of God lives deep within me Come in, come in, come in I'll teach you all you need to know Come in, come in, come in Her voluptuous heart a Jewel in your hands Her un-breathing lungs Are your cold prize Your frozen Isis of Eternal rapture With the breath of the lord in Her porcelain eyes Life-sized and perfectly formed That's magic in her skin Her organs are her gifts to you Go in, go in, go in The face of God lives deep within me Come in, come in, come in I'll teach you all you need to know Come in, come in, come in Vascular shadows beguile and seduce Severed Grace flushes her cheeks Her womb a throne, to the cult of knowing The laws of time reside in her thighs Your lacerated Goddess, I: am immune from sin Come in, come in, come in I am the guardian of mortal wisdom Come in, come in, come in

I don't know what's wrong and what's right So I cry and I rage and I fight You're licking your teeth for a bite As you sharpen your claws in the night You puncture my magic with science I dilute your meaning with rhymes You cheapen my sorrow with dumb, lousy jokes and I put out your fire with my tears The ancestors cursed us to be You're a rock, I'm a wave, we're the sea Your spear, my armour, our pride My shield of thunder by my side You puncture my magic with science I dilute your meaning with rhymes You cheapen my sorrow with dumb, lousy jokes and I put out your fire with my tears We climbed to a dizzying height So the fall may break us tonight "Stronger than lover's love is a lover's hate Incurable in each are the wounds they make" Whipping me into a fury I tear down your reason with spite You feed off my pain with such loud hungry cries That I crawl to the edge of the night

I share a piece of me each day and pray that you'll be watching me You bait me with your lies while I curate my perfection Slowly I lure you in but too much and I might shatter See me, click me, click the glass and I'll suck you in, I'll suck you in Can't imagine there could be anything else on your mind There's nothing but you on mine Your first glimpse of a new day and your final kiss goodnight Stolen by a dreamy beam, a tangled World Wide Web of light Its clinking, peering gaze preys on a lonely heart To assure you, you're alive and that's more, child - you are liked Can't imagine there could be anything else on your mind There's nothing but you on mine I watched the softest glass erode your fingerprints each day Scraping slowly, mindlessly away At that mercurial square of satisfaction Capricious cube of loneliness Protean pane of everything and nothing Can't imagine there could be anything else on your mind Phantom vibrations rule mine Capture every butterfly before it disappears I can be anything you want out here Your dream live in the glass house But you can't find the door

Each wild pear is a lie to keep her safe Every calcite word is a layer to never speak Your mineral love hardens under my tongue Slowly, deeply My moss eyes will watch you through the tourmaline I will close your mouth with sutures of gold Your mineral love hardens under my tongue Slowly, deeply Carry this now for I cannot I am the chosen pillar, the atlas of your world Chocked with agate in silver silence And handing from your argent neck - my lapis death Worked from ancient hands Stringed with faded coral and a primrose grin All for you and from you always Your mineral love hardens under my tongue Slowly, deeply Carry this now for I cannot I am the chosen pillar, the atlas of your world Chocked with agate in silver silence

Believe in me We'll take it slow Hand in hand Away we go What could porribly go wrong You trust me, don’t you? Tell me how Can it be so? I love so high Yet I've never felt so low Bare belly raised to the skies now You'll shield me, won’t you? I could be caressed by the sun rays Or devoured by the crows Oh, I knew it was a stupid thing to do But who can resist the little death of loving you? Tell me how Can it be true? I've bled so dry Yet I'm wet through What could possibly go wrong You trust me, don't you? You could be stroked by the sun rays Or devoured by the crows Oh, you know it's a crazy thing to do but choice is an illusion Life will be the death of you

Your kinda love is not accepted here She may be hot but she's not strictly human You gotta put her down, son Or take a seat in the flames They say fledgling America Will be destroyed by your malignant offspring Satan's prodigal litter Mutant hubrids born of human seed PIG MAN, PIG MAN Broken-hearted Casanova Forbidden fruit tastes even sweeter PIG MAN, PIG MAN Diabolical love The people's scapegoat or a sorcerer? Bored of the wicked girls of Salem Who'll thieve your manhood just for kicks The congregation have a newer villain Oh Romeo, I'm afraid it's you Can't choose where cupid arrow lands But gentle farmhand, zip it up! Find yourself a pretty milk maid Then close your eyes and just imagine PIG MAN...
