Lyrics

Mother mother who was I
To call myself a man
When the water broke the dam

I have teeth, my how they’ve grown
And fluoride in my bones
I’ve thought of coming home

Lilies floating on the pools
In craters on the moon
And growing through the ground

Up above the violet sky
Moonlight in my eyes
But darkness all around

Do I hear stones
At my window
Or is it hail
Or maybe rain

I can feel
Flood waters coming
To wash you away again

Levels lower now each day
Since you’ve gone away
Herons legs aground

Like yard sticks in the sand
Painted by the hands
Of people who were drowned

Do I hear stones
At my window
Or is it hail
Or maybe rain

I can feel
Flood waters coming
To wash you away again

Parting

Mother Mother

Velvet

[Verse]

If I knew I was leaving you
Then you knew I was leaving too
Laid down my tools, stone barely touched
Never to return or finish where I left off

Gallery walls pearly white like teeth
Dream lie of a pillow thief
Naked feet on the marble floor
Head of Medusa, shield like a mirror

[Chorus]

It's harder here to disappear
All that glitters is bronze
All that glitters is bronze

Don't close your eyes, I've made my mind
All that glitters is bronze
All that glitters is bronze

[Verse]

I've left serpents where I have been
Can't return to the island
Keep turning my friends to stone
I don't need forgiveness where I'll always be alone

[Chorus]

It's harder here to disappear
All that glitters is bronze
All that glitters is bronze

Don't close your eyes, I've made my mind
All that glitters is bronze
All that glitters is bronze

[Verse]

Chaos is quiet
Alone in the night
Stars covered by clouds
They won't come out

[Chorus]

Maybe all I want, is to see beneath all the lies
Maybe all I want, is to take off the last disguise

[Verse]

Swimming pool eyes
Saying don't go
So in I dive
And play it down low

[Chorus]

Maybe all I want, is to see beneath all the lies
Maybe all I want, is to take off the last disguise
