A Crater to Cough In Lyrics by Circle Takes the Square
As the Roots Undo
2004
This path that we walk upon Is the collection of points that the rain has drawn The rhythm section of the storm By the moonlight To the gateposts of the forest in the snow light We are bound for the portal of the pines Grey as famine On this path against our will by our main sails We're bound to the tempest until the sea is still Which compulsion with this miniature death tributize? From behind the walls of my broken coughing tent, a formal vision But I allude to my helpless passion for the obtuse When will this night end? When the lightning finally tears through the mast of our sinking ship All the hopes of the slaves are betrayed by the grates On this coffin of a vessel every note's another breaking wave (Rejoice!) Revel in this vision A formal visitation, rejoice, rejoice On the night with the light from above! Famished dogs follow slowly As my own paws drag me to a dock, to the last plank Where I struggle to deny myself the path that every Pisces craves Just above the water in the middle of that man-made lake On that pier, I turn my eyes From the water like a mirror of myself in the moonlight And I cough for every crater that I could see On the surface of that coffin we've come to call the moon Now I wonder if all those judgments that you made were true And the trapdoor of the solstice Is thrown wide, wide open Let them all sink, let them all sink through The talking, the spinning of a web It's all just formal ritual The burning The burning question, "What do you deserve?" The gazing at a candle to find calm But we all know it's at the center of the storm Oh moon, thou pluckest me out, oh moon I who have sat by Thebes below the wall and walked among The lowest of the dead To Carthage then I came To Carthage then I came! Only the most sacred crater will suit my burial Only the most sacred choir performs this ritual dirge Perfectly imperfect, like a storm Perfectly imperfect, like a storm Perfectly imperfect, like a storm Perfectly imperfect, like a storm Rejoice, rejoice! The prophets lead us gently To our tomb Dragged and bound to the grave by our mane To our grave Dragged and bound to the tomb by a scavenger's tooth By our mane Dragged and bound to the grave by our mane To our grave Dragged and bound to the tomb by a scavenger's tooth
