Birth Ritual

Lying like needles

On forest earth

Euphoric rush

Trees bend to pray for us

I'm sputtering

Like cold machines

Late for the birth ritual, ritual, ritual, ritual

You can drive my tail

To watch the circus

A birth ritual

A birth of idiots

Now I woke up blessed

And good strives for heartache

Marked for the death ritual, ritual, ritual

[Chorus:]

As you start the song

And face this garden

I light a cigarette before the execution

Now you see your crime

For every miracle

Add another drug at every birth ritual

I took the drug

To make me stay

And now everything

Dies in shyness

The snake retreats

Admits defeat

And waits for the birth ritual, ritual, ritual

[Chorus]

Shining light

Child's highs

Mark his sides

Bright until the newness wears off

[Chorus]

Ritual,

Ritual,

Ritual
