lyrics

Amazingly calm, I slip out of a skin.
Maybe not by the hair on my chin,
but at least by the skin of my teeth.
I blow like the wind.
I float like a leaf.
Under a skeleton grin,
I look into the water and -
once again I release and I slowly descend into darkness.
The fungus born on the park bench glows.
And tickles your nose.
And drips from the drywall
into your eyeball.
Onto your clothes and your pillowcases and your sheets and -
murmurs to your heart as it beats
"You're an ocean of blood
swimming out in an ocean of gas."
Dropping in through a hole in the sky.
Looking up from the foot of a hydrogen blast.

God can't help you now.
(Trying hard
God can't help you now.
to remember
God can't help you now.
what's going on.)

How does it feel to believe, my beloved?
And love it even as you hover above it?
And leave it as something to covet until
by the strength of your will
you give in and
shove it
in your face?
For a taste.
CMB from the depths of space and dust particles in the attic
are like anything: enveloped in the static.
And the thoughts in my head are erratic.
If I gave it to you would you break it?
Or keep it safe?
With the key on the dresser as I lay to rest in a body that's naked.
Dirty and sacred.
Wicked and lovely.
Dust of the heavens above me.
As the memory of me
shines.

God can't help you now.
(Trying hard
God can't help you now.
to remember
God can't help you now.
what's going on.)

Amazingly well,
I slip out of my head.
Stepping over a body as dead as the nail sticking out the door.
I'm hovering over the floor.

I'm hovering over the floor.
