Purity Ring - Belispeak lyrics

rate me

Grandma, my sleepless know

that you bring me some strong drink

Straighten out the pots and set them close outside

for when my belly

for when my little belly speaks

Grandma, there's air beneath my bed

and it whispers

and it whispers when I rest

with hemmed skirts

and salt and vinegar, vinegar

and water closely

Oh, water closely underhead

Grandma, the water is rising

By now this hair has gotten green

I'll be your swimming fodder starlet

when you walk safely, safely

over me

Grandma, my hands have wondered

and my legs

my little legs are getting weak

Bed, lend me your wispy frame

and guard my powers

guard my precious powers in its gate

Grandma, I've been unruly

in my dreams

and with my speech

Drill little holes into my eyelids

that I might see you

that I might see you when I sleep

Grandmother, the water is rising

By now this hair has gotten green

I'll be your swimming fodder starlet

and you walk safely, safely

over me

I'll be your swimming fodder starlet
