From the recording BEAR
Lyrics
Morbid but I’m ethereal
A garden bed condemned to think that I’m stone
Eternally internal
I’m medusa and the curse and the hero
I’m medusa and the curse and the hero
Do you believe in magic?
Think I left it in the slides that felt like static
Do you believe it’s tragic?
That when elation hits I falter and I panic
Mortal but you’re a miracle
I’ll find your light floating through the forest floor
Eternally external
You’re a wise man and a boy and a healer
You’re a wise man and a boy, you’d like me nearer
Do you believe in magic?
Think I left it in a time that felt like static
Do you believe it’s tragic?
That I’d love you better, if I weren’t abandoned
Over exposed, shattered mirror, broken bones
Call me what you like, I am not afraid to die
Statued potential as I weather and erode
Snakes still in the grass, in my mind, gripping my hands
I am not made to fight so I shrink until I’m sand
You want me as a ruby, I’m not shining for no man
I crumble and climb, cry and clear out each wound
Hold me gently honey, as I get to know you
Do you believe in magic?
Think I seek it in your touch that feels like static
Do you believe we happened,
For more than manic fate and fucked attraction
I’m medusa and the curse and the hero
You’re a wise man and a boy and a healer
I’m medusa and the curse and the hero
You’re a wise man and a boy, I’d like you nearer
