Dionysus

I went searching for the hilltop
Where they worship Dionysus
Drinking lots of wine
And hunting for a lion
Waiting for the shoe to drop
But there is no god this time
We're just drinking all the wine
And dancing through invisible lines

Moving through the moonlit night
Don't look at the city lights
We're wild in our half moon eyes
Cheeks the shade of celebration wine
Crazy alive

I went wading through the water
Pulled Ophelia by the gown
I pulled weeds from her mind
And planted dandelions
There's madness in her ballads
But there is no prince this time
We're just singing fairy lines
And leaving our clothes drying

Moving through the moonlit night
Don't look at the city lights
We're wild in our half moon eyes
Cheeks the shade of celebration wine
Crazy alive

We bleed fantasy
Cut down like a flower
I don't own my own thoughts
No more sanity
Cut open like a frog
But we are our own God
We agree we are pretty
(We never said we're not)
Thrown out like a bruised pear
(Before we're even old)
Kill the eyes and it's coming up roses
Life is unfair we know this
But still we're

Moving through the moonlit night
Don't look at the city lights
We're wild in our half moon eyes
Cheeks the shade of celebration Moving through the moonlit night
Don't look at the city lights
We're wild in our half moon eyes
Cheeks the shade of celebration wine
Crazy alive
Crazy
Crazy alive

Crazy as the Bacchae
Too crazy to die were crazy as the Bacchae
Too crazy to die were crazy past the sunrise
My mother said crazy is a word for pride
Too crazy to die we're the godless Bacchae
