lyrics
i was sleeping in the city
shadows curled and curved
around my spine
in thin black lines
spider silk fine
i traced them back
through rivers
made of space and time
found they were mine
oh they're all mine
CHORUS
i've been down to the edges
of the borderline
drank black sunshine
like communion wine
i transformed from a human
into gold green vines
last thing i knew
to be human's fine
so i went walking through the city
swearing spitting through a neon mind
and i despised human life
til my liquid soul stretched and bulged
through a skull bone eye
it wept and sighed
into a dead black sky
CHORUS
my veins were changed
into buds that burst
to thick green vines
they wrapped entwined
around a taproot spine
i knew if i stayed changed too long
my soul would die
if i did not try
to touch this human life.
CHORUS
