Tapeworm Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When I was a child they made me to read
Word-daggers of quiver and squirm;
Now in the stumbling dark I see
I am a worm, silently fruiting your garden
My sister, my child
Night casts ominous meanings on the purity of my soul
I feel devilish leanings I'm beginning to lose control
And the vortex sucks me in
Steeped in sin I die
But am reborn

[Verse 2]
(Ooh!)
I want to see the cosmos slip
Planets and moons collide
Feel gravity lose its grip...
It's all inside
All the dead husks are shattered
My life-blood, my world ripped apart
In the laughter of space
It's all chaff blown out and lost
Now I am making the pace
Although I don't know what tape I'll cross
And it's maybe catastrophe
When I cross the line
I know that I will find myself
Or maybe you

[Interlude]
I am a man from the country of destruction
I am a man, a woman and a god
I am my own weapon of kamikaze
And will one day cut through the hidden knot

[Verse 3]
Feed me honey and watch me rise
To the bait lying on the knife;
If you let me I can hypnotise your life
It's all really so simple
My lover, my twin
Hand in hand, sprinting down the highway
Running over the edge
Down and down into our doomsday;
There is no saving ledge
Nor outgrown shrub
Is this the way?
Out in a blaze of glory?
Some day I'll find the answer
Some day I'll end the story!
