lyrics

All the days & changing winds,
I feel its force and gentleness.
It cuddles me & blows kisses and
Darkens the sky
I resist

Overhead, a giant hand
Spinning webs of silver thread
One finger graces my flesh
Blood rises and burns

Oh, why do I want you?
Why do I want to--
I long to touch you
But it hurts

A growling thunderstorm
Gathers over my head, spreading fingers
Ignites a current
Heart beats violently
Lungs function again
A giant hand drilling holes
Inside my head

Your touch is really soft
So still it’s almost gone
Just a pattern remains on my skin
