Xiu Xiu - I Swallow the Moon lyrics
[Xiu Xiu - I Swallow the Moon lyrics]
'Twas in the spring one summer's day
The fallow field atomic test
Sheer lightning, white
I swallow the moon i swallow the light
I swallow the moon light, light, light
I dropped onto a burning knee
My image blasted away
I swallow the moon i swallow the light
I swallow the moon light, light, light
Pointed toward the sea the wraith of me
And I push it back out in wayward elation
Of black and sightless white
To the torrent curve of Earth
I swallow the moon i swallow the light
I swallow the moon light, light, light
The fallow field atomic test
Sheer lightning, white
I swallow the moon i swallow the light
I swallow the moon light, light, light
I dropped onto a burning knee
My image blasted away
I swallow the moon i swallow the light
I swallow the moon light, light, light
Pointed toward the sea the wraith of me
And I push it back out in wayward elation
Of black and sightless white
To the torrent curve of Earth
I swallow the moon i swallow the light
I swallow the moon light, light, light
