Cocoon

歌詞

Here in my cot -- where my cot loves me I'll stay here a while -- in the cotton wool cocoon 'Til the chrysalis is ripe -- 'til the time is right With this feeling of insecurity I have to shrink back inside -- run and hide Back in the cocoon -- hugging my knees Watching my insides -- the skinned glow-worm writhings Lying in blankets -- I've been here a while Tapping out rhythms -- against the mattress and wall The heat melts the sheets -- another layer is peeled Tapping out rhythms... Just my cot, the wallpaper and me I've been here awhile -- tapping out rhythms Still finding charms in the memory of those constrictor arms Glowing in the dark in my luminous green A pearl beaded lizard -- bathed in a gossamer scent With my heat detector lip-pit -- pulling at the newly formed tissue Lying in blankets -- I've been here awhile Tapping out rhythms... against the mattress and wall Waiting... to loose the bandages Waiting for new appendages Lying in blankets -- I've been here a while I've been here too long -- banging out rhythms Listen for other tappings... Banging out rhythms Back in the cocoon
