The Taxidermist Lyrics by Cradle P. Lavender

Adrift

2024

I read the book for as long as I could
Spent millions of moons buried in your tomb
Even when I'm asleep I can smell your perfume
Leaking through the roof of your waterlogged womb

Drowning inside of you in a pool full of fools
Waiting to be removed
For you to run me through
Pull out my golden tooth
As I'm rummaging through

Black and white photographs
Meaningless artifacts
I'm at the crux of the Sun and Neptune
Hand to a beating heart
Mine's underneath the stars
You stand there still
I'm taking your pill
Mother ripped my chest open and took all she wanted
There's blood on the wrists of the taxidermist

I wish I walked at the speed of light
Out of sight
Out of mind
Slowly going blind

Black and white photographs
Meaningless artifacts
I'm playing dead out on the avenue
Miles from your parents' house
Miles from your hometown
Pale in the nude
Got my eye on you
Yeah, you caught my attention
Your lips to mine again
Crying while kissing the taxidermist

Oh, my golden tooth
Rummaging through

Black and white photographs
Meaningless artifacts
I'm at the crux of the Sun and Neptune
Hand to a beating heart
Mine's underneath the stars
You stand there still
I'm taking your pill
Mother ripped my chest open and took all she wanted
There's blood on the wrists of the taxidermist
