There's a house in the middle of the ocean You can see it when the waves dive Then they rise like furious mountains Swallowing the girl inside it You and I are connected by a wire I feel what you feel The hum is affection, pulse is desire Anger is rasping dissonances fear
You and I are bound by a secret And the weight of a lie We gave up our families to keep it And I carried our stone child Bring the wine to the passenger Bring the passenger red In the morning, draw her a bath In the evening, draw down the bed Ride my verse through [?] fingers Find my voice echoing her dreams At the river, watering the horses Plunge my stone child down into the stream
There's a house in the middle of the ocean You can see it from this mountain's top Emerging from the rest of the water From the door to the sand, a mile of wooden dark You and I are connected by a wire I feel what you feel But I've got calm water, I've [?] Your verses humming what I never hear
You and I are the shape that the spread makes [?] A tall rebel tale and I'm the cliff [?] Walk the mile with me, passenger To our passage's end How my love became heart cut of bone A heart cut of bone to the ocean floor I send Now in this house way out in the water Now in this house finally [?] Opening my legs to the deepest of oceans Now here I bury my stone child Now here I bury my stone child Now here I bury my stone child Now here I bury my stone child
[?] One true love that tried to possess me [?] One true love that tried to possess me [?] One true love that tried to possess me [?] One true love that tried to possess me
