Blood and Flesh

Beckoning to me from the willow leaves
The spirit buried deep inside
Always a prisoner to the bondage of unrequited love

Electric snakes slithering towards my hands to grasp them, to take control of them
To be the heir of the blood and flesh that’s in between them
Can’t come out today
Can’t play with you anymore

Be under me; be under my back
Like a million grams of sand down at the beach
Be under my body, trying to find what it is you were wanting to find
But don’t fall in love
Not with me

Beckoning
From the petals of the rose
From the colors of all the flowers in this world
From the death in my heart that no longer feels
Like the carrier traveling down the stygian river
Taking me with him along with the other unforgiven souls

But where are you? Where are you? Where are you now?
Celestial being in the skies of my eyes
Where are you?
Ethereal goddess of the divine and the truth
Where are you when I am stumbling on the concrete roads,
Feeling like a peddler and trying to eat the bread that is the truth

If I saw sailing ships in the sky, would you come?
If I felt for another man, would you drown?
If I died, would it appease you?
Please you?
I know the willow leaves are me
And that’s all I need

I just need her, and death
