lyrics

you are simple like death
simple like death
unmistakable
containing the most feverish
of mysteries within
a boundless domain

you are beautiful like
a cat is beautiful
galactic sensual form
silently giving me a gaze
of voice and blood

all I bless and all I need
I hold because of you
no meaning nor madness
could replace the milk and breath that you are

you are fire driven
like, stars and like sex
in perpetual combustion
an inner pulse of endless
dance dance dance
on mystical tides

you are more
than sun and bird and fox
more than soil to my groundless heart

you are gentle like a
raindrop caught
gentle like the shelter of
a best friend’s arms
a best friend’s arms

all I bless and all I need
I hold because of you
no meaning nor madness
could replace the milk and breath that you are
