Zoomorphic Kingdom

lyrics

Spacemen watch me from the woods
crocodile eyes beneath their hoods
then in some secret place
they take me without trace

I try to open up my eyes
One thousand little antichrists
are hovering my bed
with strange grey swollen heads
and yes I think the mother ship's flown

In the zoomorphic kingdom
we're never alone
Here, in the zoomorphic kingdom
all spirits and bones
buildings and stones
all gone

I hid it in the old tin shed
the old decapitated head
I put it in a box
its leathery mask of rot

The space boy came into my room
with mantis head and silver suit
he asks me how I feel
I say "Nothing here is real"
and yes I used to think I was god

In the zoomorphic kingdom
we're never alone
Here, in the zoomorphic kingdom
all spirits and bones
buildings and stones
all gone

Mantis and antichrists
they lay me down on the
table for surgery
They're taking something out
then they replace it with
something I cannot see
Horrible insect girl
rubs ointment in my eyes
she's trying to comfort me
I saw some others there
"you look familiar"
they say telepathically
we speak telepathically

Faeries placing sacred stones
are peering through my garden wall
they watch me as I cry
and all good children die
and yes I think I'm probably god

In the zoomorphic kingdom
we're never alone
Here, in the zoomorphic kingdom
all spirits and bones
buildings and stones
all gone
