Eve

Eve had the whole human
In her body
In her body, yeah
We all had to coagulate
From her body
From her body, yeah

Eve had the whole human race
In her body
In her body, yeah
We are made of the same stuff as Eve
Flesh and bone
And soul and mind
And feeling

We are made from the same blood as Eve
(Eve had the whole human race in her body, in her body yeah)
So we carry her curse in our blood
In our breathing
You have to learn how to hold your breath
You have to learn how to feel some death
This flesh is a thicket
So weed out all that's wicked
The feeling that you feel's
An unwelcome guest

Eve had the whole human race
In her body
In her body, yeah
Eve had the whole human race (Body, body...)
In her body (Body is a beast)
In her body, yeah
Eve had the whole human race (Body, body...)
In her body (Body is a beast)
In her body, yeah

Keep the beast in a cage
On a leash
Keep him locked in a cage
Don't let her speak
She will scream in the cage
She will shout
Let her die in the cage
Don't let her out
Her body, her body
Her body is a beast
Her body, her body
Her body is a beast (Her body is a beast)

I have seen into the shadows
And beyond the things I think I know
I am burdened
I am slow
Inside this flesh I wear (...body, in the body, yeah)
If I erase every flaw
If I embrace a higher law
Then tooth and nail
And skin and claw
I need not ever care

If you kill your
Every care
Your burden will be
Less to bare

This is how I become whole
I shut my mouth to gain control
