Found yourself a serpent this time Flames are spitting sure from his tongue and his eyes Lusting for the fruits we have tried Pluck yourself an eyelash and pray that your bones will rise
Speaking in tongues you've got gin in your belly Yes something was wrong from the start With eyes wide and dark you have something to tell me I carry your bones in my heart
Riding on horseback he came Darkness in his fingertips, eyes just the same Told me there was no one to blame I was all the while clenching the omen you gave to me
Rise with the sun and the skies are wide amber I dreamt of your calling again You told me to run from temptations of grandeur That come with the visions of him
Deep in my sleep, Bones I was holding, Swallowed by hunger to see you again Running through fields, Sweet seas of golden, There it was you in the house near the grain
Dark like the night, High like the noontime, Bitter and begging my dear don't you go Your eyes were all wild, Your lips took to woo mine, You grabbed me and tugged at my soul through your own
I knew it well then we'd go down to the river You'd cleanse what was left of me under the tide The sun turned to ash and your body was withered Your bones I let go and the dream did subside
