When I was a boy I rode a crooked cloud across the skyInto our mother’s womb, my tomb where IWas born and where I diedMy bones, my brains, my bloodMy skin, my soul within, my milk, my mudA perfect mannequin of what I wouldHave been if I couldBut you somehow were bornYou pop out and the angels toot their hornsAnd every picture frame you now adornI’ll teach you yet to mournOne day, one day, you’ll dieWithout even a chance to wonder whyThey’ll lay you in the ground beside where I’veBeen plotting all this timeAnd the worms beneath the groundWill rise up and move into where you’re foundAnd swimming in your eyes, your nose, your mouthYour ears will hear their soundAnd birds who fly the skiesWill come and build their nests inside your eyesBathing in your teardrops when you cryThey’ll peck your soul goodbyeThe dogs that bark and howlWill bury every bone inside your bowelsAnd every living thing, be fish or fowlWill live inside you nowInside you now
Lyrics by The Wailing Wall
