Towards a Dark Castle Lyrics by Lloyd & Michael

Just As God Made Us

2008

You are pretty like a cold
Shiny, and long-limbed, and smelling of talc
Like the baby you are
Little thing
Little foal
So barely born
Little thing
Little foal
So barely born
Ocean foam
Eyes like coal
Voice like a coda
Like something coming to an end
A clot of blood moving toward a brain on long limbs (Brain on long limbs)
A cold clam smelling of sea
And fear of rubbery deaths
The bottom of a moat
Futile protector
Long-limbed child
Across the barren wasteland
What cowled figure seeks you out?
In a dented hides (hides)
Things hide (things hide)
Things high (things high)
Old denty dent
Mmmmmmmm...
When I went with it
I went with no pity
I was scraping downward like skiing
A fast loop on wet snow
With none of the cold
Only dark and hidden
I passed within through the gates
Through the gated path
The shaded path, the shadow path
And I walked or flew with it till the dent was done
In a raid I took from it its glimmer
Now dull is brass as the newt's back
No longer will I see a downward with it
But only grade along, grade along
Like graded gravel snow
Much would I rather die through hedges
So much would I rather have this glimmer for myself
Bottom of the moat
Futile protector
Long-limbed child
Across the barren wasteland
What cowled figure seeks you out?
