LyricMeaning

Amphibious, Androgynous
Jenny Hval

In my dream, you are slippery

My interest grows immediately

You have seaweed between your fingers, lips and limbs


Amphibious, androgynous

Amphibious

Ninety-eight percent water


I try to write love songs

But my words remain in my hands

And my hands fall to the floor


Somewhere in the distance something hurts

I dream i have a lover made out of twigs

I snap his lips, snap his limbs when we kiss


Yes you're him


The way it goes

This world is me


The dream doesn't fade, it keeps worrying me

I try not to hurt you, but in my dream

The twigs keep breaking


I touch so gently but they snap

And when you open your mouth to speak,

You make no sound

Silently gobbling up black sap



In real life I haven't even seen you up close

Only from below

In the dream you are silent

And i am (....)


I try to write love songs

But with every word

I can hear the twigs breaking

Somewhere in the distance something hurts


The next day it is

I who break

It's a clear spring day

And I fillled with sky

Ninety-eight percent blue


A day i'll find myself downing black things:

Coffee, raisins, raw chocolate


I can feel my bones

Burn to coal

My blood burns to oil


Black self, i'm becoming you.
