Salamander in Two Worlds Lyrics by Sleepytime Gorilla Museum

Of the Last Human Being

2023

[Intro]
Open your eyes, salamander, and breathe!
Called by my mother's voice into a world of water, stone, and softening wood
[Verse]
Growing strong on the dark wet food of literature and leaves
Then the rain burned and father learned to cry
And we in the gardens of our enemies learned to die or learned to hide our losses in the evergray of morning, eating poison
[Refrain]
Strong from poison, alive in the arms of death
Last of the Salamanders, child of the first breath
Salamander in two worlds!
Water and Fire
Salamander in two worlds!
[Bridge]
Open your eyes, salamander, and breathe!
[Refrain]
Strong from poison, alive in the arms of death
Last of the Salamanders, child of the first breath
Strong from poison, alive in the arms of death
Last of the Salamanders, child of the first breath
Salamander in two worlds!
Water and Fire
Salamander in two worlds!
