"The Face In The Embryo" lyrics

I spent seventeen nights
Seventeen nights in the city
Watching the horizon beckon for a buck knife
To bludgeon it's belly, to end the pregnancy
I've spent seventeen nights
Seventeen nights in the city
Watching the face in face in the embryo
Pleading for cesarean, traced by fleshy twilight

You can see it all from the rooftops
A threatening birth, a threatening birth
A swollen vagina in the sky
A threatening birth, a threatening birth

You can see it all from the rooftops
A threatening birth, a threatening birth
A swollen vagina in the sky
A threatening birth, a threatening birth

Three shades of blood to soak its death bed
Fiery red for the shutdown of the science bled sun
Viscous black for the sex lives of the science fed youth
Fiery red for the shutdown of the science bled sun
Viscous black for the sex lives
Milk white for the impossible vista of the skyline
As it shorted out
And was replaced by a network of newsprint

You can see it all from the rooftops
A threatening birth, a threatening birth
A swollen vagina in the sky
A threatening birth, a threatening birth

So close that you can smell the morphine in its veins
