lyrics

I smell the baby on your breath
you smile and like your cigarette
racing the white tips of your hands
to my surprise / OM
curling your current overflows
daring to wake among the rose
you know I‘s only in the throes
to my surprise
I was a worm
I was a worm but I learned to
learn my place in your face
I rode a whale / she rode a wind it begins
it begin it beginned my end but in the end
it would take me over, I would follow the water
I wrote a word / I wrote a word and it burned and
it burned into
but so did you
I rode a worm riding the tail of a snail on a wheel
in a wheel in a wheel in reverse in an endless wheel
and I did feel
It would take me over
I would follow the water
I‘d follow the water
to my surprise
