We circle round the gene pool
The sharks closing in
They smell the dye and vespers
Of a baby girl and djinn
Shrieking turned to gasps
Of will and will not turn
I'm blindly digging at the song
To save my little girl
The sun eclipsed the moon
The night returned to day
My baby girl, it never was
The dreams they stole away
Fell in love with violence
I set to gouge mine out
I stole the book, mutilate the word
I'm scrape the inside out
To know about the empty vessel
Glaring back at me
Filled to the brim with nothing in
Self-pity, gloating, grief
I'm fishing in the gene pool
I'm sifting through the silt
Through wicked bones and empty pockets
Who can god for'gived
The old one starts to preaching
By some gulp of fetid air
The furnace turned to carbon
How that can mark despair
So circling round the gene pool
The sharks closing in
They smell the dye and vespers
Of that little girl and djinn
The screeching turned to gasps
Of will and will not turn
I'm blindly digging at the song
To save my little girl
The sun eclipsed the moon
The night returned to day
My baby girl, it never was
The dream they stole away
Circling round the gene pool
With the sharks closing in
They smell the dye and vespers
Of my baby girl and djinn
Shrieking turned to gasps
Of will and will not turn
I'm blindly digging at the song
To save that little girl
The sun eclipsed the moon
The night returned to day
My baby girl, it never was
Your dreams they stole away
The dreams they stole away
