Eyepennies - Sparklehorse, PJ Harvey

I will return here one day

And dig up my bones from the clay

I buried nails and strings and hair

And that old tooth I believe was a bear’s

I held my hand in the fire

It burned me down to the wires

Blood suckers hide beneath my bed

And black fumes of skin so gently bled

I slept with a cat on my breast

Slowing my heart stealing my breath

At sunrise the monkeys will fly

And leave me with pennies in my eyes

I will return here one day

And dig up my bones from the clay

I buried nails and string and hair

And that old tooth I believe was a bear’s

At sunrise the monkeys will fly

And leave me with pennies in my eyes
