Batter Songtext
von Lady Lamb

I took my last breath
as the plane crashed
I don′t even think that i got to
let it out
and I don't know if you noticed
I don′t know if you noticed yet
but there's a drought around these parts
there's no water in the well
the dry spell the dry spell
don′t let your demons
Take you to the cleaners
Fix your posture
while you call your mother
Draw a picture-
It lasts longer
A body′s sacred
When it's naked
So go ahead
and let it
Be a bible for another


blood′s your compass
Let it wander
May it stick thick like a slaughter
Halle
Halle
Hallelujah
now I return to my first purpose,
a sharp breath exhaled beneath the surface
where lungs collapse like demolition
and the pulse ceases to quicken
til I become as sweet as nothing,
I am nothing now, just nothing now
I am nothing now nothing now nothing now nothing
I am nothing
from the plane I called your name
but it didn't matter:
you were home baking a birthday cake
cracking an egg
into the batter,
you had a little bit of batter, a little bit of batter
on your face
