Salto Angel Lyrics

Ruby Throat Salto Angel

Spiralling birds in matricide
Snarling black cat
With her claws in tact
Ingrown imperative
We have no compass
'cept the lunacies
Of a 'gone wrong'

And we are gone
We are 'let go'
Salto angel
Falls
And we are gone
We are 'let go'
Salto angel
Falls...down

I caught a star in a solar eclipse
And you were watching

A jagged edge sliced off of me
I play too hard in penetrative sex
I post it all to you
I want none of it
Without you

And we are gone
We are 'let go'
Salto angel
Falls
We are gone
We are 'let go'
Salto angel
Falls
Falls down
Falls down
Falls down
Falls...

The solar eclipse of his eyes

There's no meat around these bones
It was born for your signature
Now it wonders wasted
Behind a starved
Desert horse
With my entrails
Tied around my wrists

We are gone
We are 'let go'
Salto angel
Falls
We are gone
We are 'let go'
Salto angel
Falls
Falls down
Falls down
Falls down
Down...

Maybe you're going to
See me round
The curvature of the earth
