"Elfin Flower With Knees" lyrics

"Elfin Flower With Knees"

Silence a distant breakfast
Jaded and subsided
Asylum excites a lone man
Conceal his host of strangelings

The dream makers lecture nothing
They sleep and it's over
Digital spiring finger
Naturally feel your conceit through

Whatever comes
Out of her lungs
Cut from the facts
Painter of words, ecstatic in flight
Dancer of masks
Dare I thought
Elfin flower with knees from a
Drugged-up morning paraglide

Since the sun is rising up
