Oh Comely lyrics

Oh comely, I will be with you when you lose your breath,

Chasing the only meaningful memory you thought you had left.

With some pretty, bright and bubbly terrible scene

That was doing her thing on your chest.

But oh comely,

It isn't as pretty as you'd like to guess

In your memory, you're drunk on your awe ,to me

It doesn't mean anything at all.

Oh comely,

All of your friends are all letting you blow,

Bristling and ugly, bursting with fruits falling out from the holes

Of some pretty, bright, and bubbly friend

You could need to say comforting things in your ear

But oh comely,

There isn't such one friend that you could find here.

Standing next to me,

He's only my enemy

I'll crush him with everything I own.

Say what you want to say

Hang for your hollow ways

Moving your mouth to pull out

All your miracle aimed for me.

Your father made fetuses with flesh licking ladies,

While you and your mother were asleep in the trailer park.

Thunderous sparks from the dark of the stadiums,

The music and medicine you needed for comforting.

So make all your fat fleshy fingers to moving,

And pluck all your silly strings, bend all your notes for me.

Soft silly music is meaningful magical,

The movements were beautiful, all in your ovaries.

All of them milking with green fleshy flowers,

While powerful pistons were sugary sweet machines.

Smelling of semen all under the garden

Was all you were needing when you still believed in me.

Say what your want to say.

Hang for your hollow ways.

Moving your mouth to pull out

All your miracle aimed for me.

I know they buried her body with others,

Her sister and mother and five-hundred families.

And will she remember me fifty years later?

I wished I could save her in some sort of time machine.

Know all your enemies.

We know who our enemies are.

Goldaline, my dear,

We will fold and freeze together

Far away from here.

There is sun and spring and green forever.

But now we move to feel for ourselves inside some stranger's stomach.

Place your body here,

Let your skin begin to blend itself with mine.
