kayo dot - the manifold curiosity lyrics

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.
