My Phantom Limb
I see your face in the mirror My secret brother, now uncovered While dissolving into me I'm breathing into you Now I'm in you, now I'm injured Now I'm healing, now I'm clean Your voice sings inside my mind Your tongue tastes points in time Are we sleeping? Are we drifting? Are we rising? Are we shifting? We're threading tiny lights across the dome of the sky We ride a single, endlessly unfurling line I can feel you, I can heal you I can taste you, I won't lose you... Your love is deep in my bones Now they're breaking Now they're shattered Do their fragments on the floor Spell out our future, waiting to be told? With rough hands and tender breast SongtexteWhite hair and tattooed vest Now you're reaching, ever seeking Ever watching your mind unwind You hide beneath my bed You sing inside my head Are we sleeping? Are we dreaming? Are we drifting? Are we leaving? Hold my hand, be still now If there's cancer in your blood It works its way through me too We're all the same, uncontained Boiling flesh, unspoken names Dissolving, contorting Reforming, distorting I see your voice in my mind and I am singing It works its way through my veins And my hands reach up to the sky And they're burning as they're circling I'm your vessel, I am creaming I'm the avatar of your semen and I'm screaming Each one of us is fueled with love With your love to nourish As you extinguish, I flourish I'm inside your particles, your cells, and your molecules: Each one of them is individually screaming Poor little ones and zeroes: They're screaming too Our consciousness is true: it is physical It is real. It is divisible, and consumed Through you I can fly I can fly, I can finally, finally fly I disappearing mind True seeker, hold my hand There is no sky, there is no land There is no woman, there is no man Each pain, each love, each regret is sacred The wounded child is sacred The murdering man is sacred The imbecile is sacred My spit in the dust is sacred Your lover's sentient hand is sacred Fucking is sacred Music is sacred To give up is sacred Silence is sacred Mindlessless is sacred Sacred, sacred, everything is sacred Nothing's wasted in our secret Labyrinthine intestines of time Through you I create myself You are my one annihilating thought Clenched in your fist I happily cease to exist Because you destroy me You are sacred Every thought is a capsule bursting Spilling its seeds in space Each one is sacred Each one is infinite Each one dissolves Dissolving is sacred Erasing is sacred I see your voice in my mind and I am flying I taste your voice on my tongue and I'm singing You animate my hands and I'm reaching I see your voice with my eyes, right here Right now in front of me, misting the air And I'm flying, and I'm rising I am flying, I am flying, finally flying Oh we're flying, finally flying Yes we're rising, endlessly rising Oh we're flying, finally flying And we're riding Yes we're riding a white lion And he's flaming, yes he's flaming And we're flaming And we're flying, yes we're flying And we're rising, yes we're rising And we're riding through the sky Aus Songtexte Mania
