lyrics

My father was the faerie who cleaned up after everything
After everyone's in bed dreaming cinematic dreams
My mother was the Meliae who nursed us on the honey sap
As we learned to fight and love; make-believe in acid rain

But all I want is Pop & Slim
A carrying to summer sand
A place of happy burials
It's funny 'cause we never tan
If someone said "Goliath's dead! They're carrying his bloody head!"
I'd think about his little kid who wondered where his father went

I've thought about a legacy and being part of all the books
A shiny subject of debate; I've thought about a life that's free
To break out of my boring skin, to whore myself out to the fire
The pit of crackling atoms cries for me to kiss it all goodbye

But all I want is Pop & Slim
A carrying to summer sand
A place of ocean choir song
That'd eat us in a single bite
If someone said, if someone said that David had another son
I'd think of all the other ones; Who wants to live an awful myth?

We don our costumes to look the same as each other
As twisted, snake-bitten lovers
I know roses and postcards will drip off the chain of our lifetimes
Despite the caution we take
Someday we'll have robots to tuck us in bed
And we'll laugh at their shells as we learn how to fade

But all I want is Pop & Slim
I cross my heart and open hand
To be a better man than that
I'll tend the garden as you plan
If someone said that "God is dead! Do you wonder what the stories meant?"
I'd think about the two of them; can someone say ouroboros?
