Songtexte

Sylvia, I swear I heard you laughing in your sleep,
It was a rosy melody, It was the sisters singing vespers in the twilight evening,
Sylvia, how foolish, I once took you for my twin, but we are not the same,
Your moon is a smile, mine is a knife in mid-swing,
I have seen you clean among the roses,
I have known you to paint oceans with a dozen words or fewer,
I have seen you pleased among the dogs and running braless in your house-dress,
I have nothing to declare about your sorrow
Sylvia, forgive me, for I am no prophet sent, I have no language for the end,
I get embarrassed every time the priest says, Christ will come again,
Sylvia, oh fearless one, you ask if I regret that I never had a child,
I say, somedays I feel an aching in my hips as though I had,
Sylvia, oh filthiest of saints, to you alone I admit,
every seed I mean to plant slips through my fingers,
You know I am too quick to undress, to let my body be possessed,
Oh you know I have no will to speak of
 
Sylvia there is a beast in me I cannot tame, a want I cannot name,
a monster and a liar, you admire me the same
Sylvia I cannot be the bearer of your fate, I have my own life to waste,
My own bridges to burn my own destruction to unleash,
Besides, I end up fucking every wayward soul I'm meant to save,
Who am I to sing for womankind?
I have no patience for the type of woman I find I'm becoming
But when I see you cranky and ashamed, I see you gleam as though ordained
You tell me, Blessed are the hungry
