Lyrics
Tanks of Flies
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I had the verbal touch
The silver sliver of nexus
Carved from the bloody water
First-poured
Form drowning
Pulling down the moons and suns
From the thighs of the queen
Of grace and grinding
The bump, the bribe, the breasts
Made me slyly arise
In clouds of candy
Tanks of flies
