lyrics

(Lyrics by I. Maidstone)

inside the capsule that was my mother’s
under the table
i sipped a smoke ring while hiding
and looking for hooks and leads
every informant, a face or fable
caused an explosion
and added 20 more stories with 20 functions
i tried to sew shut my eyes and ears
my head to my toes threatened me
but the seams resembled dreamers
and i was touched by embroideries

knock at my door and interact with me
crazy day babe, stackin’ up the sheets
they’re all under the table
they’ve covered me to my feet
i cannot tell you ‘bout bells i’ve rung
they rang too frequently
wait! now i’m able to throw down the sheets
give you my ears for your mouth
then we’ll go to sleep
sleeping with intentions is the sweetest thing
thank goodness for you and the night dear
under the bridge, a mirror of city
beside the boys’ drawings
i was silent
forgot my mouth’s for moving
every informant, a face or fable
caused an explosion
and added 20 more stories with 20 functions
