[Verse 1]
This desert
Was once an ocean
A mother
Folds her children's clothes and
Imagines
A sea split open
Like a truck might split a deer
This desert
Was once an ocean
Oh mother, mother
[Chorus]
The zenith of this
Lumpy wood rises
Like mountain ranges
Before the axe falls
And splits it
Splits it
Splits it
Splits it
[Verse 2]
A dog licks
Its sutured scrotum
A mower
Prowls and purrs along the
Fence line where
Our birth becomes a
Death through compost
Dirt and worms
A dog licks
Its sutured scrotum
Oh mother, mother
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
The zеnith of this
Lumpy wood rises
Like mountain ranges
Bеfore the axe falls
And splits it
Splits it
Splits it
Splits it
[Instrumental Outro]
