lyrics

Your yearnings...
They call to me..
from a distant past
to an uncertain future...

Echo Echo Echo
In the ancient forests & dense thicketed mangroves
that lead to the chambers of an illusory time.

All those
dreams... sweet dreams...

Ballasts of hope
sailing over the high seas

I feel you like tenterhooks
on the fraying fabric of my lusty memories
Fastened tight
In my brain
In my veins
Pulling & pulling...
Until you yank the heart right out of me

It flies to you hapless & willing
On butterfly wings
Firefly lit & milky moon soaked
Dripping with desire

Your words devour my soul whole
Swirling it like drams of brandied madness
all over that silvery palate of yours

You don't even have to chew
because I melt as soon as I hit your tongue
And dissolve on it like one of those rock candies
That burst with a

POP!

and there goes the weasel, Daddy

Can you taste me?

I'm not bad
I'm just drawn that way
And so are you...

Your words should be scribed into hieroglyphics
on the immortal walls of forever;
Chanted by warrior angels ready to do battle
With the wicked mindfuckery
That pervades a witless Pavlovian society,

but I really don't care about that
Not right now...
Fuck the world

I'd tattoo them,
They...
Those...

The things you wield as weaponry
Yes...
Your words

Allover my body

Cover me with your sinew & spew.
I offer myself as living art
Dedicated to the glory of you

Burn into me
Brand me with your need
Color me crazy
Paint me pretty

I throw down my shield, lift up my veil
and invite you in...
How high are you willing to climb?
The rungs to my ladder lead all the way up to heaven.

What are you waiting for, Trojan Man?
Armageddon?
C'mon... CHARGE!!!
Let the games begin...
