lyrics

silver web aches where the sky wept
emerald blades burst from the black earth
tessellation of pain
tattoo of a pulse
my opening mouth
spews gold toads and radiant grains
they turn to ash in your withering gaze

pit of burning rot and roses
ladders made of snakes
we're sowing seeds in a bed of snow
and I don't know what to say
the light changes again

faraway fields forever burning
I ate the root
I woke up underground
purple sun phoenix rest
in your great stone nest
words don't sear or soar now
with a cold and flightless sorrow
my cup runs wild

pit of burning rot and roses
ladders made of snakes
we're sowing seeds in a bed of snow
and I don't know what to say
the light changes again

silver web aches where the sky wept
emerald blades burst from the black earth
tessellation of pain
tattoo of a pulse
my opening mouth
spews gold toads and radiant grains
they turn to ash in your withering gaze
