The Face In The Embryo Lyrics

I spent seventeen nights,
Seventeen nights in the city,
Watching the horizon beckon for a buck knife,
To bludgeon it's belly, to end the pregnancy.

I've spent seventeen nights,
Seventeen nights in the city,
Watching the face in, the face in the embryo,
Pleading for cesarean, traced by fleshy twilight.

You can see it all from the rooftops
A threatening birth, a threatening birth
A swollen vagina in the sky.
A threatening birth, a threatening birth

You can see it all from the rooftops
A threatening birth, a threatening birth
A swollen vagina in the sky.
A threatening birth, a threatening birth

Three shades of blood to soak it's death bed.
Fiery red for the shutdown of the science, science, science bled sun.
Viscous black for the sex lives of the science, science, science fed youth.

Fiery red for the shutdown of the science, science, science bled sun.
Viscous black for the sex lives...

Milk white for the impossible
Vista of the skyline as it shorted out, shorted out, shorted out
And was replaced by a network of newsprint.

You can see it all from the rooftops
A threatening birth, a threatening birth
A swollen vagina in the sky.
A threatening birth, a threatening birth

So close that you can smell the morphine in it's veins.

So close...
