Kayo Dot - Coyote (Lyrics)
I. Calonyction Girl
Help me, I’m disappearing,
the doors are breathing,
floorboards are bowing.
Remind me if I’m not saying anything
There’s just so much I can’t say.
I feel I’m misplaced.
I feel misplaced.
Like a moth trapped in the window blinds
after wings came apart into pieces,
who knows who I am anymore?
One day I entered the room of my mind,
shut the thick door behind my back,
Although there was no one like you,
I felt safe here.
I decided to draw some pictures in the air.
When the darkness drove it up–
all my imaginations,
they were creeping
and you told me:
“I will, I want to live forever.”
II. Whisper Ineffable
My heart was like a crumpled piece of paper, it’s been wrinkled and shrunk by hopeless ignorance. I saw it rolling over the old wooden floor isolated from my body.
I picked it up and let it sit on the desk, pulled at contusions until it opened up again. The velocity of the realm tears me apart.
My body with the shape of a blue flower whole became free from all restraint. All organs were tumbling around the room.
My true visions got let out, tangling along the wall full of enjoyment. I can see through the call, a sea of birds, ambition, and memory.
*Unwritten, those calls taste of the artificial and alive. Sorrow’s on empty.
When I released myself completely, like that, all sensations came out of my body, my feelings seemed to begin recovering from a long, long, long day..
I kept on drawing abstract vectors in one after another.
I was kept in there…
Help me out.
IV. Abyss Hinge 2: The Shrinking Armature
It makes me feel terrified
The feeling, in, into, to me,
into all of my “I.”
V. Cartogram Out Of Phase
On top of the roof,
I realized that
there was no moon.
Searching for it
among the sprinkled stars,
I gazed into the light
that’s reaching in
from millions of years ago.
See, seeing the past
outside the present,
out-world within my room,
the castle of monologues,
the heir and his failures of trials…
The moon has disappeared
because now the world is reversed,
and my feet are on her land.
I’m out of the room of my mind,
with a perfect shape of love
filling this empty hole in my heart.
