Go to the world of guilt and sorrow for the races
Tonight where the boats go cutting 
Through undulating mirror images of incandescent spires
The roads there are parabolas 
With nameless water towers near the exits 

You could turn it all on end still wouldn't be taller 
Than the biotic arch at the crown of creation 
Well there are people who put dirty hypodermic needles 
Between the seat cushions in the movie theater 
We all have the same dream the night that we contract it 
So maybe I've been sleeping less at your place 
Since a man's last panicked screams startled us awake

We're paralyzed 'til the cop cars arrive 
Casting slow-spinning mobiles on your ceiling 
Three colors we watch the frozen moon 
In daylight I stare past your eyes' 
Lenses windows framing solar wind rustling ivy 
On the painted pink buildings 
I've been hearing the soft step of the gray-eyed governess
But I know you know the physical form of moaning alarms 

Coming from the air force base 
A skinless and sinewy leviathan 
All terrible contraction and release 
Debasement ringed in banner plane exhaust 
And scattering V's of geese 

Someday my body's gonna fail me 
Then prostrate maybe in my back yard 
With my family's screams muted by the pounding rush 
The high shrinking sun will be eclipsed 
By heaving rainbows of flesh 
A chrysalis of tissues from thinning air 
So my eyes will be wide open 'cause there's no light 
Just one definite darkness 
The taste is unmistakable like a fever breaking
