Swans Where Does Your Body Begin
I saw you kneeling on a desert plateau Your eyes were melting from inside your skull The wind was burning holes into my skin Where does a body end? Your voice is drifting through the stratosphere My mouth is drinking from your pool of tears I saw your heartbeat in the radium screen What does a body mean? The future's leaking through a shut lead door In the ruins of a city under the forest floor Your naked body's buried in a vacant field What does your body feel now? The air is black and has no oxygen The bodies in the river float beneath the sun Transparent skin it shines a light from deep within Where does your body begin? The stars are hidden by a mirrored sky And darkness disappears behind reflected light Perception is a distance in a closed-in space How will your body escape? The crowd is feeling you inside your head Your imagination's canceled by the opposite And every possibility's been proved untrue Now is your body you?
