Swarm she said, and so they did
on the grass, and through the wind
Her lover goes, "I know, I know”
Taps his throat one, two, three times
Digging deep, pulls up a flame
Climb the sky, drags down the rain
Her toe in the sand, I know, I know
Drawing all these strange designs
Sun standing still in the sky no one knows why
Trumpet sounds and walls come down
Passing little stories around to kill the time
Take your flying horse for a ride, long as you like
Play pretend with scared old men
If we all get a story to send, well then, this one’s mine
Swarm he said, and so they did
in the water, anywhere they fit
She claps for death, I know, I know
He takes a bow one, two, three times
Sun standing still in the sky no one knows why
Trumpet sounds and walls come down
Passing little stories around to kill the time
Take your flying horse for a ride, long as you like
The green, the blue, the wolves, the trees
the strong, the weak, the stars, the sea,
the black, the red, the bones, the moon
the weak, the strong, the fucked, the truth
The dirt, the dark, the prayers, the flood
the ice, the slime, the sun, the blood
the heat, the smoke, the sweat, the joy
the sex, the spoils, the cold, the void
Sun standing still in the sky no one knows why
Trumpet sounds and walls come down
Passing little stories around to kill the time
Take your flying horse for a ride, long as you like
