lyrics

I waited for you in the faculty lounge. No threats are made, it’s all forgotten now. Kids we pass by are waving to us. All in the spirit of the revolution.
You ask me how we can build a monument. A body that is solid and calm. A body that is humble and pure. I stood with my bare hands and blocks of concrete and waited for the spirit of the revolution.
Left the papers on the floor and left the bed unmade and went down into the street to be with everyone. Beneath the lights, beneath the wires. With the sorrowful orchestras and this taste like when you were six years old.

Then the sun burst out on a clearing in the park. It was calling out the creatures of the dark. They’ve been starving for years beneath the surface. Now they’re crowding all the bodies of the revolution.
I walked beside you as the crowd it went away. I walked beside you on that second day. Through craters and gardens, speak to me softly. You see, I want you in the spirit of the revolution.
We gathered flowers for the chosen one. We lift him up, we replace his eyes with sapphires. But he’s the same. Torn apart within. But such beautiful skin. Pulled from the fire.

I waited for you in the faculty lounge. No threats are made, it’s all forgotten now. I took my bike to the waterfront reservoir. I tried, tried, tried to wrap my arms around the strangest notion of my fat body on the verge of some kind of revolution.
