chocolate tiger: listen
tulips
(Nicholas Naylor-Leyland)
come - bring on what may
grind me to dust
blow me away
or battered and fried
make me your meal
feel me inside
skin sinews and bone
sing me your thoughts
call me your home
come - show me your best
let me inside your chest
thunder cover - as i come back from emptiness
unheard lovebird, send me stories of happiness
maximal minimal
human and animal maximal minimal
slipping through like sand and fingers
gone between your toes
i try to smile while nothing lingers
and God only knows
why i am back from the dead
- was it something I said
i’ve come back from the dead
roll off the tongue and
through your two lips
sleight of hand - it’s a
trick of the eye
while we’re here we
might as well learn to fly
oh -i’ve come back from the dead
was it something I said
i’m back from the dead
roll off the tongue
and through those two lips
oh - i’ve come to play
undo the latch
join in the fray
mmmm.... butter and bread
water and wine
all we’ve unsaid
tough, tougher than sweet
drink in your sighs
cry where we meet
come, bring on what may
nothing can pull me away
thunder cover - as i come back from emptiness
unheard lovebird, send me stories of happiness
maximal minimal
human and animal maximal minimal
