Lyrics

Milkweed

Sift through

What’s shining

Watering down the weeds

I think you enjoyed it

Look at him

He’s wrong

And he knows

He enjoys it

Warm bodies

Cold energy

Tungsten

Radium

Hexane

He enjoys it

As he severs himself

The door

Glides open

The door is

Shut tight

The ceiling

Is sinking
