Songtext Vena cava Lady Lamb The Beekeeper

Vena cava

The Vena Cava, the most superior
The Queen bringing blood into the chamber
Always into the chamber
And didn't you and it moves the same
Even if you cannot feel how it moves
It does move there in you

I'm awake but I can not be found
Daydreaming so far down

And in your arms, I sleep so deeply
But I can feel how you relieve me
Even as you are still sitting here
Even as your mug of coffee steams
I can feel how the seams of your ribs
Will separate from the seams of my ribs
I know already how much TV
Will fail to comfort me in your absence

Its as though the nothing never was
As everything will do just what it does
Like a bullet in a barrel of a gun
Hot in here beside someone
In your eye streaks of canary yellow
In thy twin bed I lay straight and narrow
In your room all along I live
I try to keep myself from sighing
While the lilt of your language, it made me think
That I was sinking with the wreckage of that old ship
Even though our love has long been dead
His ghost will follow to the foot of my deathbed

I ain't no brother I ain't no son
There ain't no Aubergine in my blood
I ain't no warrior king
Knowing how I am when I sing
When I sing sing sing ah ah ah

While the Vena Cava, the most superior
The Queen is bringing blood into the chamber
Always into your chamber
