Case Studies - A Beast I Have Yet to Find lyrics

I have searched for such a long time For a beast I have yet to find So I'll ask you If you were a dove in a cloud of ravens Swirling as just one animal Would you deliver me safely To your nest in the morning light? And if you were a herd of ponies gathering And I twisted my fingers into your mane Would you carry me on your back Or trample me under your hooves? And if you were the claws and the fangs Of a pack of wild wolves Would you keep me prisoner in your cave? Would you teach me the proper way to live my life? And if you were a swarm of newborn spiders And I lay in your mother's silken trap Could I be the first flesh on which you dine? On which you dine? I have searched for such a long time For a feast I have yet to find So I'll ask you If you were the axe of the executioner And I painted a new line for you on my face Would you carve me gently Right between my eyes? If you came in disguised as desire And I slipped my hands beneath your dress Would you fight for no reason? Would you open your thighs? And if you were the keeper of the constellations Would you invite me to visit you up in the sky? Would we walk together, indivisible Our movements making new maps in the night? I felt like a burden and ran away. I apologize I won't follow the footprints you've left I will recover until I can recognize The taste of the feast And the face of the beast I have yet to find
