Field Report - Cups and Cups lyrics

I got a love that brings me home; got no need to terraform Tried to guide by the stars but I took it too far-- To the river that the ancient icesheets borne I came to with fruitflesh in my teeth; skin stuck in my front teeth And the scales dropped off as the sun came up and I knew that I Could never go back to not knowing I was nude In my jacket and and my pants and my boots All my love was dammed up here to you With my nose pressed into your hair I could smell with seven senses Danger, preservation in the air And I got four kinds of love but the one I'm thinking of is all four Directions, here and there And my bones cried out from sleeping on the ground Partly in your arms from behind You said there's an underground river that can go anywhere It's just where we choose to dig in and what we find All my love was dammed up here to you All my love was dammed up here to you So I followed the river underground and drank it up: Cups and cups, and pocketed some I'm always drunk, on the verge of spilling everything Filled up like a pleurisied lung Wash away the trail-- wonder what we left behind? The extra cups and cups and cups You could read me like a horse, with your legs and eyes; I got spooked and bucked When I'm pulling away I will say I feel you pulling away All my love was dammed up to today If I stayed would you stay with me right here?
