DATURA [paroxysm]

(album: exuvium [OBLIVIØN Pt. II] - 2023)

I see the birth and death of the universe swimming around in your eyes

Datura yellow gazing through my mind
Datura yellow gazing through my mind
Datura yellow gazing through my mind
Datura yellow gazing through my mind

Datura yellow gazing through my mind
A p-p-purring with it's poison should I let it lay or p-p-pluck and pulling down a willing throat
To lead me to the place where I have shattered

Ooooo
A question that I find is harmless
But at night it seeps in through my eyes
Arresting and caressing every fold and strand I leave to loose
I feel it pull and I unravel

Oooo
Slither through my soil
Oooo
Bring me to a boil
Oooo
Feel my atoms rising
Oooo
Terminal velocity

I see the birth and death of the universe swimming around in her eyes
Eternal monoliths of storms past

You have my attention

Haunt me in all of your ways

I see her fingers bending backwards twist and turn and tie themselves together
Beckoning behind her back with fingers dripping rainbow puddles singing to me "come and drink of many waters"

Oh God I am dissolving disapperating folding flying feeling every color swarming
Slipping past my skin like snakes they hear me waiting
Skin abuzz with weight under their gravitation

I see her fingers bending backwards twist and turn and tie themselves together
Beckoning behind her back with fingers dripping rainbow puddles singing to me "come and drink of many waters"

Sings "I'll look into the wind I'll look into the flame I'll dig into the earth and swallow it again
I'll find you in the safe and quiet place inside your mind and expose all the beauty in your terror"

The void is awaking
Creating, degrading
Eternal, unfading
The siren is waiting

The void is awaking
Creating, degrading
Eternal, unfading
The siren is waiting
