Highly Cryptozoological

I've come to know the taste of dirt The rejection upon my tongue Oh, I know my coat is black I've been a threat since I was young

Held down, head down

I break you with my hatred Mouth and volcano whirl My arms screaming with branches Womb of ocean undone

Feeding upon my own flesh Eyеs fire with what I've won Swallow you in tsunami Wild forces ovеrrun

I guess the gift, I kissed the stone And loved the damage that's been done A child's blood was drawn from me My river drools communion

Held down, head down

My body crushes yours now I'm burning with the sun Swallow you in tsunami Wild forces overrun

Rise up, girl, oh rise up Speak your truth, speak your truth Fear none and walk without shame Remember, no more dying

No more dying

It leaves a bitter taste in my mouth I can't take it much longer Cause I'm growing fonder of the change it brings to me I'm moving on down South Cause I'm turning into a wrongun I'm growing fonder of the change it brings to me, to me

All yours All yours Hanging on to ageing ways Taking all you've got to take All yours All yours

Prop me up 'til the morning Elevator music maestro I'll just be nodding my head until I end up dead all the same And one day when I can afford it And stop complaining where all of the time goes And maybe the tables will turn and my lungs won't burn today
