The Body
Album • 2016
Marred spirit Struggles from the afterbirth Of Death Albatross pines for the altar Foal pines for the mare Brother pines for the sister Mother pines for the lover Blood yearns for the needle Soil thirst for the seed Skin aches for the razor Heart burns for the need

I came upon a butcher He was slaughtering a lamb I accused him there With his tortured lamb He said, "Listen to me, child I am what I am And you, you are my only son." Well, I found a silver needle I put it into my arm It did some good Did some harm But the nights were cold And it almost kept me warm How come the night is long? I saw some flowers growing up Where that lamb fell down Was I supposed to praise my Lord Make some kind of joyful sound? He said, "Listen, listen to me now I go round and round And you, you are my only child." Do not leave me now Do not leave me now I'm broken down From a recent fall Blood upon my body And ice upon my soul Lead on, my son, it is your world

Guilt cuts, tensions pray Years abuse, hands obey Eyes fold, stars malign Balance the weight between The here and the now Cavity collapses Spine bows When the time runs out, desire peaks When none are left, the bottle speaks I am the body Flesh on the pike Pine for me now I am thy light I am the body Flesh on the pike Pine for me now I am thy light

Accept the lot Wounds will show Pain for a battered soul Lashes for a wounded and tattered chrysalis Pain for a battered soul Marry the warmth of the hand to the cold of the world Speak to the mind of a cruel and callous earth Accept the lot Wounds will show Pain for a battered soul RELEASE BE FREE ACCEPT THE PAIN
