Black Morning / Viscera

Lyrics for Black Morning / Viscera

I woke up and found outside my door a black lake rippling against to the heart It's time to slip the flesh from my bones and replace skin with the waves I core into the black lake... head over... to the water And pulled out my heart from the seaweed But didn't know it's golden! I came back with a broken summer and a broken spine. Grazed by the heat and stung by the night Tried yoga, couldn't do yoga Wasn't the stretches, nor the downward dog. It was a breathing thing And upside doors, I felt my organs fall Through my throat One by one: liver, lungs, lungs, liver Lungs, lungs, lungs, LIVER! They came fast like fingers Inside-out in one snap And then the vocal cords Flowed like seaweed out of my mouth.
