Yesterday came soon
The plastic people write their wills on butterflies
Reprimand my heart
It's ocean wide and tied up in your hungry eyes
The master's quarters brought me joy
I laughed, I cried, I wept
I held your hand
I said goodbye
The curtains fell
The ocean dried
The sky went dark
The moon caved in and slashed the flowers

Hold me in your arms
Capture me in retrograded photograph
Spin me like a top
I can write your name in blood, it's all for you

I loved you then, I love you now
Your skin, your touch, your brow
Your pheromone
The bitter end
The days of frost
The Eskimos
The pastured flames
The stereo

Hold me in your arms
Captured me in retrograded photograph
Spin me like a top
I can write your name in blood, it's all for you

Hold me in your arms
Photograph
Spin me like a top
It's all for you
