Birth Ritual
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.
Lying like needles
On forest earth, euphoric rush
Trees bend to break for us
I'm sputtering like cold machines
Late for the birth ritual
Ritual
Ritual
Ritual
You can climb my tail
To watch the circus
A birth ritual, a birth of idiots
Now I woke up blessed
And good strives for heartache
Marked for the death ritual
Ritual
Ritual
As you start the song to face this garden
I light a cigarette before the execution
And now you see your crime for every miracle
Add another drug at every birth ritual
I took the drug to make me stay
And now everything dies in shyness
The snake retreats, admits defeat
And waits for the birth ritual
Ritual
Ritual
As you start the song to face this garden
I light a cigarette before the execution
And now you see your crime for every miracle
Add another drug at every birth ritual
Shining like
Child's eyes
Marble size
Bright until the newness wears off
As you start the song to face this garden
I light a cigarette before the execution
Now you see your crime for every miracle
Add another drug at every birth ritual
Ritual
