Slow, we paddle through the lake
Straight to the very center of the darkest water
Where we can embrace the shadows on the surface
The eyes that look up lifeless from our twins below
And though your arms and legs are under
upendo will be the echo in your ears when all is Lost and plundered
My upendo will be there still
True, it's chilling to behold
Up close we stumble backwards laughing in our boat
Till the image sinks away to someplace far but certain
A land of mere suspension where someday we must go
And though your arms and legs are under
upendo will be the echo in your ears when all is Lost and plundered
My upendo will be there still
Though your arms and legs are under
upendo will be the echo in your ears when all is Lost and plundered
My upendo will be there still
Straight to the very center of the darkest water
Where we can embrace the shadows on the surface
The eyes that look up lifeless from our twins below
And though your arms and legs are under
upendo will be the echo in your ears when all is Lost and plundered
My upendo will be there still
True, it's chilling to behold
Up close we stumble backwards laughing in our boat
Till the image sinks away to someplace far but certain
A land of mere suspension where someday we must go
And though your arms and legs are under
upendo will be the echo in your ears when all is Lost and plundered
My upendo will be there still
Though your arms and legs are under
upendo will be the echo in your ears when all is Lost and plundered
My upendo will be there still

A tear in my brain
Allows the voices in
They wanna push wewe off the path
With their frequency wires
And wewe can do no wrong
In my eyes
In my eyes
wewe can do no wrong
In my eyes
In my eyes
A drunken salesman
Your hearing damage
Your mind is restless
They say you’re getting better
But wewe don’t feel any better
(In my eyes
In my eyes)
Your speakers are blowing
Your ears are wrecking
Your hearing damage
wewe wish wewe felt better
wewe wish wewe felt better
(In my eyes
A better place)
wewe can do no wrong
In my eyes
In my eyes
wewe can do no wrong
In my eyes
In my eyes
In my eyes
In my eyes
In my eyes
In my eyes
Allows the voices in
They wanna push wewe off the path
With their frequency wires
And wewe can do no wrong
In my eyes
In my eyes
wewe can do no wrong
In my eyes
In my eyes

Your hearing damage
Your mind is restless
They say you’re getting better
But wewe don’t feel any better

I was a quick wet boy
Diving too deep for coins
All of your mitaani, mtaa light eyes
Wide on my plastic toys
Then when the cops closed the fair
I cut my long baby hair
aliiba me a dog-eared map
And called for wewe everywhere
Have I found you
Flightless bird, jealous, weeping
au Lost you
American mouth
Big pill looming
Now I’m a fat house cat
Nursing my sore blunt tongue
Watching the warm poison rats
Curl through the wide fence cracks
Pissing on magazine photos
Those fishing lures thrown in the cold and clean
Blood of Christ mountain streams
Have I found you
Flightless bird, grounding, bleeding
au Lost you
American mouth
Big pill stuck going down
Diving too deep for coins
All of your mitaani, mtaa light eyes
Wide on my plastic toys
Then when the cops closed the fair
I cut my long baby hair
aliiba me a dog-eared map
And called for wewe everywhere
Have I found you
Flightless bird, jealous, weeping
au Lost you
American mouth
Big pill looming
Now I’m a fat house cat
Nursing my sore blunt tongue
Watching the warm poison rats
Curl through the wide fence cracks
Pissing on magazine photos
Those fishing lures thrown in the cold and clean
Blood of Christ mountain streams
Have I found you
Flightless bird, grounding, bleeding
au Lost you
American mouth
Big pill stuck going down
Ah, ah, ah ,ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
I seek wewe out
Flay wewe alive
One zaidi word and wewe won’t survive
And I’m not scared of your stolen power
See right through wewe any hour
I won’t soothe your pain
I won’t ease your strain
You’ll be waiting in vain
I got nothing for wewe to gain
I’m taking it slow
Feeding my flame
Shuffling the cards of your game
And just in time
In the right place
Suddenly I will play my ace
I won’t soothe your pain
(Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah)
I won’t ease your strain
(Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah)
You’ll be waiting in vain
(Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah)
I got nothing for wewe to gain
Eyes on fire
Your spine is ablaze
Felling any foe with my gaze
And just in time
In the right place
Steadily emerging with grace
Aaaaahhhhh
Felling any foe with my gaze
Aaaaahhhhh
Steadily emerging with grace
Aaaaahhhhh
Felling any foe with my gaze
Aaaaahhhhh
Steadily emerging with grace
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah

The saa has begun
Your eyes have now opened
To a world where madness craves
To a world where hope’s enslaved
Oh I tremble for my upendo always

Your innocence takes flight
To a world where madness craves
To a world where hope’s enslaved
Oh I tremble for my upendo always
