The Manifold Curiosity

Kayo Dot

Composed by: Kayo Dot/Toby Driver
It never hurt this much before, 
And I feel I'm courting Saturn. 
The Twelve-Eyed Secret gazes through a prism, 
Staring into raindrops swirling slow 
It lifts its horrible heads 
With lidless orbs of limitless vision. 
I dream with fluid movements in a lake 
The ripples cast from skipping stones 
We speak below a gushing mind, 
Crouching in a corner, hid behind a box 
Full of Worms and stalking shadows. 
Magnetism draws me to a cone of space; 
I sift still through hours of its plasma, 
Biding time until the clocks collapse. 
Music shattered my spine on the steps outside; 
I cannot move; my liquid breathing 
Is sculpted with this binding gel. 
But come, my love, and rescue me 
From failure. 
Cover me with an opium sheet, 
Embrace me with gossamer; 
Kiss the moonstones from my eyes 
And brush the cobwebs from my bones. 
It all sings beautifully; 
With all your strength believe this. 
But I know you can't understand 
Why I threw myself from the glass again.
