lyrics
I'm putting my obsidian knife into your open chest
Your pulsing heart is waiting - the life that I will wrest
The water and the soggy soil, the fire and the ice
Are here to see at first hand and ensure my sacrifice
I'm carrying out the eyeballs, the liver and the lung
And with the greatest pleasure I'm taking out the tongue
Your genitors will give me the strength I'm craving for
The rest will be the precious gift to someone I adore
Your eyes - I take it, I eat it
Your body - I take it, I eat it
Your flesh - I take it, I eat it
Your heart - I take it, I eat it
I'm thirsty for your salty blood, I'm hungry for your flesh
The tongues of flame pick smoky bones, spitting out the ash
Your skull will be a perfect cup to carry the sweet course
There's nothing like your brain for it - the centre of your force
Your eyes - I take it, I eat it
Your body - I take it, I eat it
Your flesh - I take it, I eat it
Your heart - I take it, I eat it
I'm putting my obsidian knife into your open chest
Your pulsing heart is waiting - the life that I will wrest
The water and the soggy soil, the fire and the ice
Are here to see at first hand and ensure my sacrifice
Introspective, homespun folk tunes from John Donne that feel informed by the sugary bleakness of '80s and '90s indie pop. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 1, 2023
