Lyrics
[Verse 1]
While gathering glitter, your arms reach to heaven
They're bending, then breaking and cracked
Your mind is a lie, and a lie is a line spinning a spiral
Glowing in air that is thick and opaque and is black
Flat dead black
Uselessly screaming while chewing the ceiling
The mouth that is screaming is the mouth that is breathing red dust
It's in us
Red dust
[Verse 2]
Licking your fingers, you butter your shadow
Your belly is pregnant with plaster and sawdust and lust
Feed it us
In disgust
Your eyes are reversing, traversing red canyons
In the floor of an ocean swirling with sulfur, carbon, and rust
It's in us
Lust is in us
Lust is disgust
[Chorus]
Red in mind
Red yellow room
Yellow eye
Red yellow moon
[Chorus]
Red sucking tongue
The red will come
Red sucking tongue
The red will come
The red will come
[Outro]
The red will come
The red will come
