Death Rattle

I want you in black and crimson
I want to feel the weight against my spine
I want to be the only person
You think could fix your entire life
I want to build a circle around you
I want to draw white sigils on your skin
I want to hear how the moon light calls you
When you let it in (You let it in)

I want to be the river around you
I want to fill your lungs and shut your eyes
I want to be the only person you
Know could wreck your entire life
I want to find that holy fire
I want to see you dancing deep inside
I want to see your black blood pulsing
Want it to drown me be my guide

I want you to be
The end of everything

Deep from the center came a horrible sound
To remind us how our bodies are all destined for ground
And earth, sediment without sentiment
Mortal coils always to trying to find out where their tails went
And I said and I meant and you went
Like snow in the sun in the pocket of a car's dented hood
Yea we were never better than good
The whole time we were better than the shoulds
And the coulds and I would wait for days pacing tracks
I had made, digging ruts in the places where our bodies had laid
Looking for some sign of your frame
in the skies and the lights like a secret I'll take to the grave
So lay me down give me full consumption
Burrow out the hollow leave a bed for the weeds
Light a candle and say my name enough times
I've been waiting in the bardo and
We've many rivers left to weave

I want you in black and bone white
I want to find what's sleeping deep inside
I want to you to be the only person
I know could end my entire life
I want to fall like a leaf in winter
I want to hear my name mixed with your lies
I want to hear how the blood moon calls us
Want it to drown us be our guide
