lyrics

WE’RE SEAGULLS

A certain glow of vapor fairs,
there’s something solid in the air,
poor Maga in your Sunday best,
tin soldiers parts hang on your chest.

And I bless the aeons where you are.
I bless the aeons where you are

You could see the sun from behind his door,
he lost his mind between the wars,
he’d show you scars of purple love,
the soothing humming of the grove,

And I bless the aeons where you are.
I bless the aeons where you are.

Well, I’d rather die than part from you,
your seasick halo shining through,
I’ve crossed the ocean seven times
for your wired hair, your one good eye.

And I bless the aeons where you are.
I bless the aeons where you are.

Radioactive colors in the stars,
I bless the aeons where you are.

And I need the mantras, need the sun,
the company of an iron lung
that prays for me when I’m not home,
that gently sighs for flesh and bone.

I need the whores you seem to shock,
your twenty monkeys on a rock,
your fear of shadows in the sink,
the way you mock me when I think.

The way you mock me when I think.

All you did was waiting for
the moment you’d turn into gold,
and fish fat mermaids with your mouth,
and spread your wings and swing down south.

Spread your wings and swing down south.
