Dear God
Your river nymphs have desk jobs
They're meant to be dancing in the streams
Reminding everyone how beautiful life can be

You're ashamed
The same sensibilities
Reticent
Reticulated
So hung around your hurricane breath
Scared to half life by your impending
That manna is the spirit of euphrates
While shambling your xylophone up 15 stairs

Your eyes and every kaleidoscope are kissing
Holding tiny hands precisely
They wont sell it we ain't buying
I can't find the blame

Your perversion is only human
Grown malignant from contusion
Dear God

Dear God
Your river nymphs have desk jobs
They're meant to be dancing in the streams
Reminding everyone how beautiful life can be

And now
Reluctant to the alter
Before the bleaching wind
I take off everything
Dear God

Dear God
Your river nymphs have desk jobs
They're meant to be dancing in the streams
Reminding everyone how beautiful life can be
