you cut her name into your heart
you burn his name into your arm
cast out the pig you kiss as love
heaven is closed for now you are alone



this too, this too shall pass away
this too, this too will pass away

listen, Steven is singing to you
the pain of life you wipe away
a reason, that fine gray ash shall
recall these days inquire
the serpent
to become a rag of a dream interred you arrive
and you wave as if she could care
but she can＇t
nor can you
the relinquishing and a flickering
out of loss
this too, this too shall fade away

listen, Steven is singing to us
perhaps depraved is who you are
why not?
depraved at least you＇re not alone
overcome by the truth you face that you can＇t
get up or look up at the moon
without throwing up and it
stay the same all the time
lie and wait
it stop again like a bee
it will die
when it stings you once
and its small bee＇s head will fall off
