[00:00.00]Swimming Through Stone
[00:02.83]
[00:14.56]I have heard about this
[00:17.46]About walking into rooms
[00:19.88]And flooring covered with snakeskins
[00:26.35]Oh snakesins how i wanna crawl back in
[00:31.14]To them like sleeping bags
[00:37.54]And i need things like i need paper thin fins
[00:43.53]
[00:43.71]How i envy the herrings
[00:49.36]Always on their way
[00:52.96]In easy flashes
[00:55.34]Tiny lightnings
[00:58.49]Glinting
[01:01.41]Like sparks when wolves
[01:05.11]Strike flint
[01:07.44]
[01:07.65]While i feel like i am swimming through stone
[01:13.13]So i'll hold my brain out of the water
[01:21.49]As i swim my remains back to him
[01:26.96]Cause the last thing that i need is a wet brain
[01:33.52]During the hurricane
[01:35.74]So i'll rest my weary head
[01:38.74]Between the eagrets beak
[01:42.95]So i can hear you sing
[01:45.08]The salmon eggs to sleep
[01:47.70]With the songs of the wild
[01:50.61]
[02:06.96]I thought the coast was clear
[02:13.17]I thought the coast was clear
[02:21.81]But i'm wading through dead skeeters
[02:28.99]Through wriggling larva
[02:35.82]Through blood suckers
[02:42.97]And i've never sucked blood before this
[02:48.56]And i've never sucked blood before this
[02:53.28]I've never sucked blood before this
[02:58.33]
[03:02.09]And i knew better
[03:05.06]But i walked right in again
[03:07.39]And there is that floor all covered
[03:12.27]With owl pellets
[03:17.03]I examine the tiny bits
[03:19.53]In wonder and decay
[03:21.99]All mystified
[03:24.70]At the little skeletal
[03:28.57]Glories
[03:31.68]I wonder what went on in the rabbits hole
[03:36.30]And how these tiny things cannot seem to escape
[03:43.19]Until we are left with snakeskin
[03:49.96]And matted fur
[03:52.57]Hair thin
[03:55.60]Oh
[03:57.85]
