Sun! You are red-brown with age Sun! You're streaked in dirt and worn with duty Sun! What crime have you committed to now be dragged by force forever nightly to your western bed? Sun! Oh what atrocity are you guilty to now deserve this suffering? Sun! Why are you not like the moon who disappears so painlessly when she spies your heavy body rising sadly in the morning? Sweet night moon, she sings her spells to her salty-faced disciples They suck her rays from tubes of feathers They dance inside her lunar coolness They are cold to everyone! A choir of sinners A choir of girlwolves Howling from their windowsills on which they perch, bathed in moonlight, singing songs so joyfully-- Sun! Sun! Sun! Sun!

Stay where you are Stay were you are (cold and shaking) Oh don't you want to come to me now? Oh don't you want to (I'm so cold) come to me now? Oh come to me, don't be afraid. Be afraid Be afraid Be afraid now Oh take you rightful place. Run to my arms, to my arms Run, run, run (stay where you are) to my arms. I'll be afraid, I'll be afraid, I'll be afraid Oh run, run, run from me now Oh run, run, run Oh run through the night swiftly My arms will freeze in the dark in the dark, in the dark, in the dark in the night, in the night, in the night I'm so cold, so cold and shaking I can feel my body breaking. Oh.

I love a snake with things hanging off her She is an alien all in white She comes to me in the form of dust Filtered through a bright attic light She brings to me such precious gifts She brings to me things I never had She brings me to the sun and moon While I'm dying in my opium bed.

You dress grimly in the light coming out of your muth. I remain lying in the pile of creature bones. The basket is undone. I undid it with my teeth when I fell off the string that is my path over hell. Trying to hold on, my fingers caught in your face-- Ripped free, and I kept falling-- Landed in the tops of the trees that grow in hell So, I skinned myself and threw the end up to you. I had to ask you to haul me up-- this time I had fallen so far. You pulled me up by my sin-- and your face bleeding-- Now I am lying, panting and you are dressing grimly in the hot light coming out of your mouth

I know it's coming It knows I'm running But it walks. And the monster moves in Tearing open my face Its fangs--and it swallows my mind I mean it, I mean it, and I know you see it--I can't find your hands You have never driven so fast away from me. Now I welcome that which feeds me Because the thunder head is mind And the climbing fingers and jumping teeth are mine. And sometimes sometimes the power is mine.

The wind is winding swiftly through Metallic trees like a striking snake Looking for me Sun, I see you But you are far away and cold I don't know if you remember me... Sun, are you watching me (in memory) now? Sun, I can't see you anymore And you are too far away To remember me now But I remember--your rays were like Jackal teeth making tears in my dress. Pricking my skin, and I loved you. While the wind holds down my wrists, I look to you While the wind fricks its tongue over me, I cry to you: "I don't understand it; what did you want from me? Why did you go away? Why have you let the wind take me now? Or, or will the earth open up and swallow me? Or, will the earth open and swallow me? Sun! Sun! Sun! Sun!"
