Found yourself a serpent this time
Flames are spitting sore from his tongue and his eyes
Lusting for the fruits we have dried
Pluck yourself an eyelash and
Pray that your bones will rise

Speaking in tongues
You've got gin in your belly
Yes, something was wrong from the start
With eyes wide and dark
You've got something to tell me, I
Carry your bones in my heart

Riding on horseback he came
Darkness in his fingertips
Eyes just the same
Told me there was no one to blame
I was all the while clenching the
Omen you gave to me

Rise with the sun
And the skies of wide amber
I dreamt of your calling again.
You told me to run from temptations of grandeur that
Come with the visions of him
Deep in my sleep
Bones I was holding
Swallowed by hunger to see you again
Running through fields
Sweet seas of golden
There it was you in the house near the grain

Dark like the night
High like the noon time
Bitter and begging, my dear don't you go
Your eyes were all wild
Your lips took to woo mine
You grabbed me and tugged at my soul through your own

I knew it well then
We'd go down to the river
You'd cleanse what was left of me under the tide
The sun turned to ash
And your body was withered
Your bones I let go
And the dream did subside
