Lyrics

Remember that time
When at home
In the summer I saw
Two dragonflies mating
Floating around on top of each other grotesquely
I was terrified
The Cronenberg of life
Pleasure rendered as horror
I see bulbous eyes
Chasing me through my nightmares
An aversion to life - is it normal?
(Fucking is a disease
Procreation is incest)
Later that summer
I was invited down the block
To play with water guns
All I wanted was to fit in
So I let the boys spray water all over my head
And when I fled, nearly crying
They shouted after me
“I thought you liked it!”
And so it is with everything
You don’t contain a universe
You are just flesh
Melting away in the sun
Those dragonflies…
Chasing me in my nightmares
An aversion to life - is it normal?
Fucking is a disease
Procreation is
Incest, insects
And so it is with everything
