Fantoft

Recalcitrant, I am pathetic in the next room And when I try to speak the air remains unmoved Our trilobites go dancing up in the Pleiades In parallel positions our antennae All our lives get smudged together Whether we like it or not Big black hole up above Pistons fire, pigments blush All our lives in all directions Running around like we're god This is me in the snow After our engines blow Watching flies dance above This collection of dust Lay your eggs in my cuts Wipe your eyes then take off But what if I just stood up Shake these leave from my guts Pull the landscape in half Draw these curtains apart But I just slip back under the floating grass These constellations cover the ceiling I wasn't watching what you were seeing I wasn't watching what you weren't doing and I wasn't watching what you weren't being I'll never come back I'll never, it's true There'll be no place to come back to I promise you I'll tear you limb from every limb you grew Don't worry, it's true self destruction I'll never come back yeah All our lives get smudged together Whether we like it or not
