I fell in love
With a starling
He died in my mother's arms
Was buried and exhumed
And now all I think of is wings
beating down hallways
And elfin eyes flashing
round my room
I caught a fly
Between my fingers
And the thumb
I looked in his thousandth eye
And saw freedom
So I told him how I loved
Your bones
When we pulled them one by one
Out the stone
I heard you singing
With tiny lungs
Of millions counting one by one
I've seen you grown massive
My tiny one
And I feel now your yearning
For the black sun
Oh, I feel that you're yearning
For the black sun
in a dream last night
a spoken tongue
calling out like i was at him (adam?)
a muster
a murder
a murmur
a muster
a murder
a murmur
a crow
a stork
a starling
great clouds of them
filled the skies
they fell through roofs
and into pies
So I told him how I loved
Your bones
When we pulled them one by one
Out the stone
With a starling
He died in my mother's arms
Was buried and exhumed
And now all I think of is wings
beating down hallways
And elfin eyes flashing
round my room
I caught a fly
Between my fingers
And the thumb
I looked in his thousandth eye
And saw freedom
So I told him how I loved
Your bones
When we pulled them one by one
Out the stone
I heard you singing
With tiny lungs
Of millions counting one by one
I've seen you grown massive
My tiny one
And I feel now your yearning
For the black sun
Oh, I feel that you're yearning
For the black sun
in a dream last night
a spoken tongue
calling out like i was at him (adam?)
a muster
a murder
a murmur
a muster
a murder

filled the skies
