I love your checkerboard floor
But the floor is lava
You think in black and white babe
Guess you do what you gotta
Your pride was so peculiar
The way it led you straight to hell
Man always falls on his own sword
Some common sense could do him well
But you're too locked away inside your greedy paradise
Pretending you love that place.
Always pretending to be nice
Who do you do it for, I wonder
Though, I think we know
It's like you think your life is being broadcasted for show
Yet when you close that bedroom door, you're standing there alone
Money can't buy happiness, or even buy the purple throne
So if you're caught in cycles that you know you have simply outgrown
Perhaps someone loves you enough to offer everything they know
Or would you rather keep eating your same breakfast of lies?
Choking on complexes and fancy little business ties?
I like how goddamn driven you are, I think it's fun
Just don't forget that your will is not the highest one
And if you do forget a divine wife reminds you
She shrinks your head again, and lays down right beside you
Tells you she loves you and you feel her mortal touch
Hand on your belly or your neck
Would pride convince you love ain't worth that much?
You want the things that look nice, what about the things that feel?
Why is it so damn hard for you to simply keep it real?
Nobody asked for this, the stars produced you and I.
We are mere dancers for the churning physics in the sky.
What war are you fighting?
They said the war was over.
She never loved you but you feel as though you had to own her.
And if you must buy love, you'll find that it's not there
Even though the moneys all been drained, flushed away somewhere
I understand a man gets caught up in his ways...
For that the universe can't help but offer grace
The temple and the soul of man is at the very top
Are you going to go up? Or are you gonna stop?
The way we think is so alike and yet so different
You're trying hard to win a fight that has no winnin'
Unless you drop the weapon & come bearing love
But as I said before, I guess you're just too tough
I'll get in the ring with you, put your hands on me!
all your aggression could be taken out for free
you can fly if you simply rise but you don't wanna?
It would be far too easy... you'd rather make yourself a goner
I knew you been hurt bad—I'm mad— who hurt my man?
I wish I could take the pain away, oh yeah, I really can!
You charm the snake in me, and we climb the ladder
The final degree, where the illusion shatters
You need your shining star, the apple of your eye
You need your teacher's pet, who sees through all your lies
You need your golden child to keep you in your place
You do the same for me,
the shadows that we'll face...
Man will die out someday, this I really think...
Ego is just too big, a ship that tends to sink...
Because the ego tells you not to ascend
What did you think it meant when they said "making friend"?
Your other half, I am the moon to your sun,
but we got crossed somewhere, your sun is the burnt out one
And now you try to drown me whenever we hang out
I let you hold me under, I learned to swim, no doubt
You hunt me, but I love you Mr. Cult Leader
Can I take you to a place that's even better than "believer"?
You worship Tara, and I'm a Tara yellow.
Durga Mary sent me to you, I'm right here, hello
I'm not your pacifier I'm not your little game
You don't get bored of me, it don't take too much to keep me sane
You know I'm wild and I'll say what needs said
You know I'm crazy full of love and even better in your bed
You know I'm fragmented, I'm changing all the time
You said I bitch and moan, it's true sometimes I whine
Because life is a war, a patriarchal delusion
Feels like a chore to live amongst mortal man's confusion
I wanna be overtaken by you, if you feel the flame
And if not it's best that you would just stay away
I'll burn your forest and I'll put out your simmered hair
I'll call the wits back to your brain
You'll act like I'm unfair
But Baba who will protect me when I'm feeling scared?
When the frozen golden one says "nobody is there?"
You learn to patch my shattered mirror, since it was you
The patriarchal masculine who obliterated youths
You say I'm like a Mary-go-round I'm so predictable
Magdalene went round and round too, was not despicable
I keep you happy, strong, and young
You keep up with my flow
I keep you going when you're done
You love me like no one knows
The sun, my heart I told you my heart was a sun
So that when yours burnt out I'd reignite your eclipsed one
I am your second heart when humans ate your first
Only came back because I thought you deserved it the worst...
It wasn't even up to me it was the karmic law
In death there was everything laid out, so I saw it all
You know by now stop making me rehash the truth
Bc you're too afraid to change and fly the coup
I got you, Baba, I won't ever let you fall
I'm climbing up behind you after all...
You've got to learn to be a wiser man for me
Don't suffocate me with your trickster energy
You can try to bring her but I don't think she'll go, already saw it all, the truth you just don't want to know
You know I'm right or you would not be listening
I saw the play amongst the stars that had been glistening
I know the way not by sight but by faith
You know it too, we walk each other all the way
You're deadly and you're lively and I love you for it all
You hurt me and you made me pick up and answer The Call,
Now it's your turn and it isn't all that scary
I'll be right there to keep you grounded if you're feeling wary
Up off the lava floor, we can share the pearl
My heart is a sun, and I am your babygirl
I'm shining right in front of you, all five points
But you refuse to see, alchemically, our spinal fluid anoints
Unless by force, you can't touch me if you don't recognize my spark
The way I recognized yours before I'd built that ark
In fact unconsciously you're my reason for it
I loved you, didn't quite know why, just couldn't ignore it
Not much time, hold out the line, waiting for the fish
I'm sorry but they told me every man would get his wish
And you get yours too, deep down, you do know what you want
High priestess lover sweetheart and you're the Hierophant
Of course you're gonna run from it, love is a scary dream
For someone who alternates from hiding and demanding to be seen
I don't care what you are I love your blackened heart
Of all the roles I got to play, being yours is my favorite part
my sun burns your walls down
and lights your fuse
We'll explode like a supernova muse
I wanna be held by you...
My heart is your sun, your sun, your sun
I am your golden one, more than fun, on the run
My heart is your sun, your sun, your sun
You know what I like to do with men who are so devoted to me the way you have been?
I like to reward them, allow them into my temple
If they can handle it
Your efforts make me smile
After all you're so in love you couldn't help but crawl into my skin...
I love you too.
I think we'd laugh a lot.
