I See You Call
In the contour of my room
See the speckled beam stream light from the moon
In the belly of the beast
Who is satisfied not with one in the least
And I see

In the belly of the beast
Who is satisfied not with one in the least
In the empty chamber of her heart
Molasses blood pumped there right from the start
And I see you call, but I can’t see

Equal parts self hatred
Equal parts self care
Equal parts pure, pure joy
Equal parts despair
Equal parts religion
Equal parts doubt
Equal parts within
Equal parts without
And I see you call, but I can’t see
Your presence is a tease, babe
Like vapor in my hand
You come just as you please

And leave when you demand
Snow feeds the mountains
River quenches ocean’s thirst
One of us is bound to leave sometime
I bet you’ll be the first
And I see you call, but I can’t see
