lyrics

Tantalus

Rain forms puddles in my eyes
A breath away from summertime

Mounds of Venus, lips of dirt
Ash between us only earth

Fruit hangs high, too high to reach
A cresting wave that skirts the beach

Lips of Venus, mounds of dust
Steal away your luscious rust

Capsized vessel in the ocean’s vein
Treading water in the stinging rain

Mounds of Venus, lips of clay
What will you whisper today?

You’re all tongue, and I’m all thumbs
Salty and so cumbersome

Lips of Venus, mounds of dirt
Lick the ashes of your skirt
