batwings (a limnal hymn) - coil lyrics

Loading...

(the key to joy is disobedience
there is no guilt and there is no shame)

a moon-piece to fetch up the golden cup
a snow-piece to avoid the great heat of the sun
is kept in the night and by the light of the moon

an ice-piece so as they seem forever fallen
a night-piece of the dismal supper and strange entertainment
a rare chance-piece, a handsome piece of deformity
the skin of a snake bred out of the spinal marrow of a man

with stones and illegible inscriptions found about great ruins
pictures of three remarkable steeples, or towers
built purposely awry, so as they seem eternally tipping and falling

a transcendent perfume made of the richest odorates
kept in a box of translucent scale

a gl-ss of spirits made of ethereal salt, hermetically sealed up
kept continually in quicksilver, of so volatile a nature
that it will scarcely endure the light
and therefore only shown in winter
or by the light of a carbuncle, or a firefly

and batwings
and batwings
and batwings sing this limnal hymn
a wideness opening and closing to keep the darkness sealed within
to keep the darkness sealed within
to keep the darkness sealed within

to keep the darkness sealed within
a moon-piece to fetch up the golden cup
