Firebrand

The quiver of your smile oh the hardly subtle glint in your eye
like a spoon by a plate
Table it is covered with the finest golden plans and desires
of others who wait
Time for you to rest has come and gone so baby let’s get to work
let’s take care of that need
Nothing is spared from your wide open mind
swallowin flower to seed
Oh — brutal and quick it begins
with beauty defiled
I’m feeling the universe spin from one so eager and wild
oh, it ain’t a matter of need
not one I understand
so carelessly fevered your take
from the eyes, the heart, the hand.
Shaking my head my stomach is turning
half-ghost half-man here I come, The Firebrand
Watching you, learning, alert and discerning
half-ghost half-man here I come, The Firebrand
Radiating child of Satan and Mary
half-ghost half-man here I come, The Firebrand
Watching you, learning, alert and discerning
frequency strong, my scars I am earning.
The quiver of your smile oh the hardly subtle twitch you can’t hide
like an unbroken steed
Nothing is spared from your wide open mind
swallowin flower to seed
Oh — brutal and quick it begins
with beauty defiled
I’m feeling the universe spin from one so eager and wild
oh, it ain’t a matter of need
not one I understand
so carelessly fevered your take
from the eyes, the heart, the hand.
