lyrics

Lady Entomologist

It’s only because it’s only because
You carry the weight the ominous fate
You follow the train of DNA
You write it all down hoping that someday
You’ll be a god among men
You’d put us all back to sleep
And make us rise from the dead
To be your children
You’d give us a name put us all in a cage
So you could pull us apart looking for something
So that you’d never die
It’s be the cure to the end of life
From which you wish to save us

Ahh you never had anything to say
Ahh you’ve never been close enough to stay
You work yourself into a sordid sleep
And your dreams are no where I’d want to be
Ahh your trying too hard
I hear you say Oh my god oh my god
What if the sun don’t wake me up
No your not no your not
Gonna give it up
Whether or not you break the code
You know this ain’t right
Your trying to take the world and make it your own
You choose who lives and you choose you dies
If we want to live a life we have to pay your price
Ahh your trying too hard
I hear you say Oh my god oh my god
What if the world don’t buy my love
No your not no your not
Gonna give it up
Boiled in Ivy

Part of it is everything
You said but never say
With open mouths and closed mouths
And fingers crossed in secret braids
In concert halls and backlit booths
And hallways long and lost for time
In waiting rooms with darkened news
Plotting out the perfect crime
You came to me carved in trees
By hidden ants leading secret lives
I flew to you a bird in blue
Sawing all the space in two
Swear to me that there is truth
In words bared like fangs
We boil the books in ivy
Silencing the light in a swollen rage
