lyrics

To crawl out, then crawl inside
The master directive

Taking his first gasp of air
He climbed up from the womb
Exiting her fleshy folds
Glistening, like a miracle
Shaking off the excrement
He soared into the sky
In awe of all he saw
Bewildered by the miracle

To crawl out, then crawl inside
The master directive

Then came the spears
Piercing flesh and spirit
Shaking his faith
In the miracle
Hope turned to rage
Rage to defeat
And the soaring slowed

And on his way down
He was swarmed and pecked
By all manner of scavenger
Taking, taking, taking
And finally, his body limp,
He plummeted toward a hole
Just beside the one that gave him birth,
But this one with a tombstone
and dug into the earth

To crawl out, then crawl inside
The master

May cause lockjaw and stank face. ... more
