I Became a Morbid Creature of Sorrow

Watcher, eyes shielded, above us on cliffs you perch
I know you, a gilded crescent is your mouth
your tongue--a forked serpent
down the rocky crags you sprint, breathless
down the rocky crags you sprint, breathless
to the steamy ponds and myths of Jurassic vegetation
while far below, a glimmering fish with white eyes circles tensely
far below, a glimmering fish with white eyes circles tensely
with white eyes, chill and silent
with white eyes, chill and silent

white eyes in circles, endlessly
I dream about you on the day the war begins
I dream about you on the day the war begins
you visit me and I am forced to remember human folly
to remember human folly
to remember human folly

white eyes in circles, endlessly
I became a morbid creature of suffering
I became a morbid creature of sorrow

white eyes in circles, endlessly
I became a morbid creature of suffering
I became a morbid creature of sorrow
