lyrics

There’s an open wound someplace south of my neck, north of my toes
Where the blood spills out of a geysers mouth and spoils my ivory robes
By the river slow and easy, still I don’t know where it flows
I wanna know where you go, when you go

In the poison room of the time hotel every crack is a swollen tongue
That sings to me my eulogy, the last breath of a golden lung
I kept my heart a secret now I bleed naked in the snow
I wanna know where you go, when you go

I loved you like a brother, I kept you safe from sulfur eyes
And you treat me like a Trojan horse just to take ‘em all by surprise
I took my horn down to the club, for I felt that I might blow
I wanna know where you go, when you go

A head filled with nails was found face down in a lake
When they pulled him out the police new it could be no mistake
They found 29 nails in his brain and one lodged in his nose
I wanna know where you go, when you go

I caught time in a cage I kept it captive for a while
I staved it and I beat it but I still got no reply
I asked that it might take me and leave you old to never grow
I wanna know where you go, when you go
