Ceilings

There was a sound the night after we were born It flooded the air, and then it was ignored He was the fur and she was a set of coloured teeth Twenty-two years slowly biting into me You're brand new Where the hell did you come from? You said something to me then When you came out of nowhere You scared me to death The creature that breathed and moved in my mother's youth Is burrowing deep into her sinew My eyes were gripped beneath blankets and the cold of the night Nervous loves and fears recorded in decaying light You're brand new Where the hell did you come from? You said something to me then When you came out of nowhere You scared me to death You're brand new Where the hell did you come from? You said something to me then When you came out of nowhere You scared me to death
