Since I am currently having a Saturn transit I am torn between my desire to crawl under a rock and that voice which tells you you must always press forward so I’m just going to publish this then go hide.
Cold tea, dance with me
Give me something more to eat
Hold my head & help me find the sun.
Red fire, warm & bright
Stay with me for one more night
Tomorrow we go pay for what we’ve done.
You are my red eye by & by
You are my fire come from the sky
Now take my head & tell me what I need to know this time.
Like a slave
I was placed on earth to follow.
Like a dog, put down when I’m wrong.
But I won’t break at a jagged fate to swallow
You just play; I sing along.
Words spin round and round
Only sky where was the ground?
Leave my house you dirty cunt I’m done.
Fist eye, hot head fly
Falling down the stairs was I
Hold my head & tell me I was fun.
You are my best friend by & by
You are my fire come from the sky
Now take my head and tell me what I need to know this time.
Like a slave
I was placed on earth to follow.
Like a dog, put down when I’m wrong.
But I won’t break at a jagged fate to swallow
You just play; I sing along.
Come to me love like a bone
The only love I’ve ever known
A spark of light then miles and miles of dark.
Burning hands and sparkly eyes
And miles and miles away the skies
To settle down around around us in the park.
Like a slave
I was placed on earth to follow.
Like a dog, put down when I’m wrong.
But I won’t break at a jagged fate to swallow
You just play; I sing along.
