tapeworm - peter hammill lyrics

Loading...

when i was a child they made me read
word-daggers of quiver and squirm;
now in the stumbling dark i see
i am a worm, silently fruiting your garden,
my sister, my child .
night casts ominous meanings on the purity of my soul
i feel devilish leanings i’m beginning to lose control
and the vortex sucks me in.
steeped in sin i die
but am reborn.

i want to see the cosmos slip,
planets and moons collide,
feel gravity lose its grip…
it’s all inside
all the dead husks are shattered,
my life-blood, my world ripped apart
in the laughter of sp-ce
it’s all chaff blown out and lost.
now i am making the pace
although i don’t know what tape i’ll cross…
maybe catastrophe.
when i cross the line
i know that i will find myself
or maybe you.

i am a man from the country of destruction,
i am a man a woman and a god,
i am my own weapon of kamikaze
and will one day cut through the
hidden knot

feed me honey and watch me rise
to the bait lying on the knife;
if you let me i can hypnotise your life.
it’s all really so simple,
my lover, my twin.
hand in hand, sprinting down the highway,
running over the edge,
on and on into our doomsday;
there is no saving ledge
nor outgrown shrub.
is this the way?
out in a blaze of glory?
some day i’ll find the answer
some day i’ll
end the story.
