You can't heal your father with a kiss He was a blind boy in corduroy Your porcelain sister, she's really a steel woman And I'm not sure if she's an angel or a changeling The prisoner laughed At the marble and must Don't lie to a flower Feline girl Perhaps she's not an angel after all Don't lie to a flower (A child knows these things…) He couldn't fly too soon… And you're deep in the center of a circle The prisoner questioned his blindness And you couldn't fly too soon, could you? Soon you'll be free of your velvet logic Oh, you always surround me Oh, you're always above me (streamlined and steely Perfumed and porcelain.) Oh you always surround me Oh you're always above me Don't lie to a flower (A child knows these things…) He couldn't fly too soon… (through a cup of desire…) He couldn't fly too soon (the color of sky…) He couldn't fly too soon (the spoke of time and salt and desire…) He couldn't fly too soon Listen fool, there's a hole in your head Your worlds are locked up in tiny boxes Perhaps she's not an angel after all He spoke of time, of salt and desire (A child knows these things… )
