horse of good fortune stands tall between trees of which branches spiral into the air and the mud all become what lies between us placed within her hand the reddest gem I had told her, "I love you" forever I know the wind will carry her back horse of good fortune God will make me better soon, I'm sure and I won't drive you far from home, my love the tireder I get, the angrier he'll be horse of good fortune lies and waits for me the lonelier I feel, the lovelier it seems horse of good fortune lies and waits for me horse of good fortune, won't you wait for me

Delilah 03:26
deep down deep down beneath the growth, above the roots Delilah, some lover, face all bloodied and beat she crawls, emerges at my feet runs from what no other sees she grabs and whispers harsh to me "The voice told me it'd keep me warm it took my blood and it took my love the stream held me in its cold sharp grasp running fro' and back to the one who asks his eyes shine bright and his skin of bark it wraps around, leaves you calm sinking in against sap and leaf I felt its teeth graze against my arms the birds they flew, frenzied and lost as the teeth pressed deep into flesh long gone I closed my eyes and I felt its love and before me the flies circled and swarmed"

I felt sure of the end the sky opened up asleep when the clouds are grey and angry and my curtains float inward oh so menacingly the birds' cries become warnings of the end and the men's faces all shift and fall to the ground I do it for you I do it for you I do it for you (we wait for you)

And I Want 05:26
I've been watching as your body fades from my view time's been passing and your soul is something I can only muse I've been listening to the shadows, when they tell me to remember I will not want I will not make myself sick with this longing and this yearning I will not want I will not ask you for anything, you turn away from me (she will not speak to me she will not let me breathe she only comes out when the moon is waxing she tries to comfort me with her fidelity if only you had the kindness to kill me) and the girl comes in and she's asking me for all the things that I want that I cannot see and I weep I weep and she sits at night and she tries to read but the sickness is taking a hold of me and I want I want la la la I've been waiting for somebody new to take over my mind I've been sitting nice and quiet, hoping you won't mind she said, "won't you call me soon? I'd like to speak to you I've been sat in the house for months won't you call me soon? there's things we've yet to do I've been thinking and thinking and thinking and thinking"

in the water years pass through you down to the bed of a woman watches out for you from water in water - black cat come cross against my path toward rather opposing within the flower of tenderness lies what knows
7.
they've been here tapping at my window saying "he'd like to speak to you" my body's breaking beauty's waning little shards of glass he'd like to speak to you send him away I'm breathing in your air it makes me sick but I don't care

April sat on the church bench covered in blisters from hand to feet child, come stand before me harsh is the journey from land to sea my baby floats away from me green encompasses, wraps around her knees take from me my daughter and my life fair lady bring her back to me I can give you all and everything exchange for her my years of sin and strife girl, playing in shallows don't run too quick now don't trip and bleed stare into the chasm its voice will follow you tell you to go see my baby turns her back to me Thetis, for me, make her wary drive her curiosity to die bring her back to me my life

taste sea salt again lick it off my skin I won't be subject to your lies not for much longer darling take my hand and walk with me Into the sea wind is a breath on my back feel the waves at my feet the rock stands so close yet my legs have grown so tired it will not get any closer now ( wash off the blood and walk with me into the sea feel the sting on my body and the waves at my feet ) sweet little angels catch my breath come now and take me to the end
11.
what is a meadow with no hare what is a tree without a mare land meet the sea, and create from foam, she land meet the sea, under branch of oak tree my fruit has grown ripe before me in my white coat, I will become sea
12.
when it sees it'll break down the door and eat my body if you could taste it and swallow the seeds then you would when the light calls out and asks it to follow, it does but I know you I know you what you know hurts you it loves you it'll eat you frenzied and insatiable it's only just passed through you kiss your hands down to the bone it knows just how to move you years and years and years of this love has shaped my soul and blinded my eyes and now I only ask to see the Truth Truth shining down on you to see the lighthouse, standing lone the fish that drink sky and bite turn to silt so lovingly
