Ouroboros

Your spoon was in the boiling
Your thumb was on the scale
Don't try to lead the witness
That wont get you anywhere

Sit still and try to listen
Hear the whispers in the wind
Make yourself an empty vessel
If you want to let them in

Turn pages lick your finger
Black ink is on your lips
You won't find out the secret
In all the books you kiss
Just like the ouroboros
Your tail is in your teeth
Strip off your outer layer
Find out what's underneath
Find out what's underneath
Underneath

You've had your fun, darling
Here's the part you won't remember
Lion eats the sun, darling
Till there's only glowing embers
Who will you become, darling
When your skin is torn asunder
Torn asunder

Turned inside out
Now you have found all you wanted
Turned inside out
Now you have found all you wanted

Your wings were in the blueprint
A message left in code
A phoenix's potential
In the ashes of your bones

It is a risky business
There is no guarantee
If you go out and seek it
That truth will set you free
What does the moth remember
Of caterpillar bliss
Is this annihilation
Or metamorphosis
Or metamorphosis
Metamorphosis

You've had your fun, darling
Shining in the summer splendor
Lion eats the sun, darling
In the dark of deep December
Who will you become, darling
You'll receive what you surrender
You surrender

Turned inside out
Now you have found all you wanted
Turned inside out
Now you have found all you wanted
Turned inside out
Now you have found all you wanted
Turned inside out
Now you have found all you wanted
