Weevil Bride -

And in the end we caught our weevil bride

She was arraigned in garments' genocide

We took her home to where our mirror stood, like she knew we would so she smiles

She sings oo-oo-oo, I’ve been here before

Many years ago, before the war

And it goes on and on and on until you’re gone

And I just need to know that everything is fine and everyone’s alright

They take our tongues and give us guns, two coins for the ferryman for when

you’re gone

The weight of souls drives his boat ashore and he sails no more

Staring out across the end he sings oo-oo-oo I’ve never been here before,

even years ago after the war…

…chiseling the granite from our dusty eyelids, harvesting the stones we throw

We caught a virus from the periscope inside us, we caught a virus from the

periscope

We caught a virus from the periscope inside us, we caught a virus,

we caught a virus

Star-struck freeze frame capture that coin-filp fateful harmony-muted feedback

With your cold hands on the foreheads so feverish and frantic while madmen lay

your landmines in the ballroom

And I want some, yes please

Send us back as amputees with starry rags and shiny things

Let me back into the sun

How many times must all this be said?

On and on until we’re gone, we’re all children of light cut from the same thread
