lyrics

While I slept, my spirit woke
And crept away to be alone
I have tried it on my own
How I wish it would come home

Oh creature, filled with rage
Behind the big brass bars of your cage
Back and forth, I watched you pace
While your eyes glowed green like sage

Every man I fall in love with
Oh they all remind me of him
It’s their hands or a word they say
Or a look upon their face

But they shapeshift like clay
And he always slips away

So every night I clutch my side
Where there’s a hole from which it climbed
And I hug myself so tight
And close my eyes to block the light

But oh baby, when I saw your face
By the muddy banks of the lake
Like a fish you breathed it in
I watched your chest rise again and again
