13. Zed and two naughts lyrics

I'm not breathing any better
mallets crack with every grin
I hear a scraping plea of branches
against my broken window
I won't let you in
the silhouette holds me under
can poke me with these pins
flotsam drip of nectar
the nexus bean sprouting
when she says

Saint Christopher
don't go wandering
with no one left to save
because no one's at the wheel

and the claps of thunder
from a gash of - rain
this bed will never rest you
the answers in the sermon
I won't let you in
-
a wasted dusk of kin
propulsion turns to nectar
when the pigment leaves the body
when she says

Saint Christopher
don't go wandering
with no one left to save
because no one's at the wheel

-
crawling like an animal
hold your breath it's feeding time
in this zed and two naughts

painted a fulcrum of caves
piled with dreams of
phantom masses made of pastures
labyrinth setting, cystic maze
I've been hanging wreaths of cancer
on every door where children sing
watch it all blister
