Singles movie - Birth Ritual lyrics

Song by Soundgarden<br /><br>

[written by C. Cornell, M. Cameron, K. Thayil]<br>

<br>

Lying like needles <br>

On forest earth <br>

Euphoric rush <br>

Trees bend to pray for us <br>

I'm sputtering <br>

Like cold machines <br>

Late for the birth ritual, ritual, ritual, ritual <br>

You can drive my tail <br>

To watch the circus <br>

A (birth?) ritual <br>

A birth of idiots <br>

Now I woke up blessed <br>

And good strives for heart ache <br>

Marked for the death ritual, ritual, ritual <br>

[Chorus] <br>

As you start the song <br>

And face this garden <br>

I light a cigarette before the execution <br>

Now you see your crime <br>

For every miracle <br>

Add another drug at every birth ritual <br>

I took the drug <br>

To make me stay <br>

And now everything <br>

Dies in shyness <br>

The snake retreats <br>

Admits defeat <br>

And waits for the birth ritual, ritual, ritual <br>

(Chorus) <br>

Shining light <br>

Child's highs <br>

Mark his sides <br>

Bright until the newness wears off <br>

(Chorus)<br>

<br>
