Under the covers

 


Terrible runny nose - runny nose

terrible cycle my compass is under the covers

terrible runny nose the nose is completely red

is filling up the reading holiday 

and it's only seven o'clock

terrible coryza in the aeons of nose

sick enough to be completely absent-minded

and close to crying

sleeping already before the sun rises again.

 

Terrible to cry and sleepwalk through the zoo

what I choose of value

terrible to cry yourself to sleep in the zoo

terrible cycle my compass is under the covers.

 

Love you to death

is just going sideways

choke fan howls like a dried out spark plug

all the animals in the zoo are equally frightened.

 

Love you to death

love you for everything new

you are my compass under the covers

sideways through the shock in the zoo

sideways through the shock in the zoo.

 

Terrible duvet - you are the gift I go to sleep for

my arms breathe you like awl

beyond the wilderness

flows a river they call the river of love.

 

You are my compass under the covers

you are my sideways cry

when you count me for your skin

and the dolphins jump in the zoo community

don't you think we should call in sick?

sideways through the shock in the zoo

sideways through

shocked in the zoo

sideways through 

shocked in the zoo

when you count me for your skin.
