Coil - Ostia (the Death Of Pasolini) lyrics

rate me

There's honey in the<br />

Hollows<br />

And the countours<br />

Of the body<br />

A sluggish<br />

Golden river<br />

A sickly golden trickle<br />

A golden, sticky trickle<br />

You can hear<br />

The bones humming<br />

And the car<br />

Reverses over<br />

The body in the basin<br />

In the shallow<br />

Sea-plane basin.<br />

And the car<br />

Reverses over<br />

And his body rolls over<br />

Crushed<br />

From the shoulder<br />

You can hear the<br />

Bones humming<br />

Singing like<br />

A puncture<br />

Killed to keep<br />

The world turning<br />

Throw his bones over<br />

The White Cliffs<br />

Of Dover<br />

Into the sea<br />

The Sea of Rome<br />

And the bloodstained<br />

Coast<br />

Of Ostia<br />

Leon like a lion<br />

Sleeping in<br />

The sunshine.<br />

Lion lies down.<br />

"Out of the strong<br />

Came forth sweetness."<br />

Throw his bones over<br />

The White Cliffs<br />

Of Dover<br />

And murder me<br />

In Ostia.<br />

The Sea of Rome.<br />

You can hear his<br />

Bones humming.<br />

Throw his bones over<br />

The White Cliffs<br />

Of Dover<br />

And into the sea<br />

The Sea of Rome<br />

Then murder me,<br />

In Ostia.
