EN
In my dream, you are slippery My interest grows immediately You have seaweed between your fingers, lips and limbs Amphibious, androgynous Amphibious Ninety-eight percent water I try to write love songs But my words remain in my hands And my hands fall to the floor Somewhere in the distance something hurts I dream i have a lover made out of twigs I snap his lips, snap his lips when we kiss Yes you’re here The way it goes This world is me The dream doesn’t fade, it keeps worrying me I try not to hurt you, but in my dream The twigs keep breaking I toot so gently but they snap And when you open your mouth to speak, You make no sound Silently gobbling up black sap I realize i haven’t even seen you up close Only from below In the dream you’re a saint And i am behind smoke I try to write love songs But rid every word I can hear the twigs breaking Somewhere in the distance something hurts The next stage is I who break It’s a clear spring day And a fueled sky Ninety-eight percent blue A day i’ll find myself down in black things: Coffee, razors, raw chocolate I can feel my bones Burn to gold My blood burns to oil Black self, i’m becoming you
