Bodies Offering Lyrics

bodies offerings
wanting and adoring
they don't discriminate
their evocations
summoning pleasure
and yet still willing
to give themselves
as sacrificial beings
contributing
to holy desires
of the embodied human spirit
i've entered the realm of your excuses
and the latent and guilty aloofness
i couldn't make things stay
in a temporary way
i was your lover
now you are my friend
we keep reaching for fates that don't exist
with selfishness and artifice
they're the tools of the trade
in a corporate parade
i'm a consumer
now you are my friend
these bodies offerings
are unwavering in desire
they won't resist
their attraction to the fire
that burns through the flesh
and casts its shadow
onto our skin
and into the wind
when we are just lovers
and we start to uncover
the embodied human spirit
i've entered the realm of your excuses
and the latent and guilty aloofness
i couldn't make things stay
in a temporary way
i was your lover
now you are my friend
we keep reaching for fates that don't exist
with selfishness and artifice
they're the tools of the trade
in a corporate parade
i'm a consumer
now you are my friend
