lyrics

I swim through the city at night
With a sailor’s dead blue eyes.
Sleepwalking cats stare at me
Wearing business suits in the subway.

They know. Dog doesn't know
What’s going on. Wolf is gone.
This year, machine is a woman.
She’s made of silicon and carbon.

I’m 23. My 13th month.
Derelict voice of geese on the windfall.
I’m 84. And I listen
To the dogs braying outside the city walls.

Everything that will soon happen
Is already happening.
I don't know if it’s you or its me
Or it's them who is speaking.

A dream of insects collected over time.
A fetal head pressing at the base of my spine.
Wolves play guitar on the TV.
Gog and Magog watching breathe easy.

Everything that will soon happen
Is already happening.
I don't know if it’s you or its me
Or it's them who is speaking.
