From a black widow's reckoning Your fortuitous spine Opened up like a marionette Danced a whimsical pride Lend a hand to the silver blade Stir your gut 'til it pours Fill our cups with profanity 'Til the earth is stained orange How my tongue dried into the dust How my skin willed a lie Drill a hole in the field Just the size of my thighs Feel as lonely as I do Feel as lonely as I do Feel as lonely as I do, as I do Feel as lonely as I do, I do Dried up seeds neath our parting seas Floating pears on the tide Slow motion to drown me Roaming streams from our eyes How my tongue dried into the dust How my skin willed a lie Drill a hole in the field Just the size of my thighs Feel as lonely as I do Feel as lonely as I do Feel as lonely as I do, as I do Feel as lonely as I do, I do Hold the pain in a soft crux With our palms facing up Push it thoroughly through and through This is ours to drink up Oh, the madness in weakness Doubled o'er on the plate Fill an ocean with weaponry Hurricanes of our grace Feel as lonely as I do, as I do Feel as lonely as I do, I do Feel as lonely as I do

I could build a big machine Draw pictures for the walls Hang up all my fragile thoughts Display that you might see A space, a drop, a cloth The comfort of frailties in me A space, a drop, a cloth The comfort of frailties Baby, why don't you see, see my sea?
