Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Black feather on the carpet
In Vivien's back room
Where you kept me warm
A glimpse that one day
I'll believe in
Someone accepting my physical form
[Verse 2]
If I wasn't so broken
You could have me
Body and soul
Body and soul
But for now
Just take this
A body unacceptable and abandoned
Unacceptable and abandoned
[Verse 3]
But you were so unwavering
Such a pretty boy
Just a sweet prince
A knight in black lipstick holding me down
And when I couldn't breathe
I watched you transform
Into a flock of ravens
Not long after sunrise
[Verse 4]
You were showing me
Divinity
What we are in camaraderie
A world within
The sweetness of your skin
Escape everywhere
Inwards-pointing and always pointing in
[Verse 5]
So I remembered
Every word you said
Breadcrumbs leading me back
To the exit you showed me
Points on my body
Unhealed tattoos
Soft hips, soft lips
Incantations
Between the carpet and your claws
And the caws between sleeps
Sudden wingbeats
