Drama Queen

from Behind Invisible Things by Recoils

/

lyrics

Welcome back, said the ocean to the rain
Much has changed while you were away
But I can see that you’ve also changed
You’re not the same, you’re not the same

Was it the dark earth that devoured you?
Did they bury you? Did they die for you?
You were supposed to flow through all life
And not evaporate under the bright lights

Oh, you filthy little thing
Sold your mother’s dear purity ring
Such a disappointment, such a drag
Well, come now, pollute me

The drama queen dancing in the forest at night
Dancing slowly and around her nothing is what it seems
The drama queen and the things she’s done to me
Well, I’d still reach out to her
I would dance slowly, too

Slowly with you

Skin like silk paper, eaten by moths
Covered in mildew, stained by loss

The rivers run dry and so you crawl to me
The digestive tract of a leech, teeth of a nocturnal beast
But forgive these cruel animals for what they are
They’re guided by parasites, making their way to the body farm

And another changeling appears
Through a door that wasn’t here yesterday
And another changeling appears
Through the rain, through the fog, past the traps that I made

Oh, you filthy little thing
Sold your mother’s dear purity ring
Such a disappointment, such a drag
Well, come now and dance with me
