lyrics

[crickets and cicadas and other insects, a brook flowing from a sacred spring]

was there ever a time when he saw me as i was
or have i always been a windowpane?

the maples weep their petals, arms open wide
am i that season to him? or just an endless spring?

his love languishes, a scream in a canyon
my terror turns me virgin again

my hands empty, then fill
and fill
they fill

i gather myself out of reach

i extinguish his great burning eye

i'll kill you, my god

i'll kill you, or i'll die
