lyrics

i'm going to wake up with you someday
with the incubator on
and when we do it's going to seem like we've been breathing always
when the watery stars all formed
and grew merging to become twin incandescent suns
can you believe that there has ever been a brighter one?

i'm going to name you for her someday
every shell cracked open warm
and when i do it's going to seem like she's been with us always
recapitulation's gone
all matted running off your wings won't ever fly
before you spread them watch your brothers and your sisters cry

so sorry Flannery
that you had to die
we've tried inventing
how you would reply
to bearing violence, those preserving all the worst
remains of grovelling for our trust
then each good man was hard to find,
connected now, they've been assigned
to make sure our identities
are tangled up with these beliefs:
1. we must protect god's righteousness
2. it's no coincidence we're blessed
the sperm's all boiling towards the eggs
the heaving masses leaving dregs
the failures all too numerous
to fathom all these little deaths
oops, we're too close! we need commands
so general we'll understand
that's there's a plan, that there's control
that Truth itself was not the goal
so let's speak in majestic tones
of this desire that burns our bones
but not for being satisfied,
it's just to keep us crucified.

Then it trailed off for awhile.
