The Nylon Lion Attacks As Kingdom

Lyrics

I am leaving when the leaves fall
 I am returning when the eyes open
 I am hidden when the eyes close
 I am between lips and lids
 My murder shuts quiet
 His sheets are shadows in the water
 And the histories are full of blinking
 And blurs
 I am hidden when the inken bird covers
 My youth and my back
 I was not there for you in the panic
 I was not there as the kitten died
 And I take this home with me
 I swallow your pain and stick blood into me
 Suck moss and needles, the faces of burrs
 The methodical false twilight
 And the gossip poured love like greedy beads
 Like mirrors I am your face
 In the toilet in the kittenchen
 On the glassblue sea the birds see
 I am your mirror
 Your echo is me
 In bells and birds that beauty I saw
 Etched in clouds trailing
 Making curtains of waves
 The broken face peeps
 He echoes "I am echo"
 I see you monster
 I see you monster
 My back and jaw hunch and feel
 You there
 You are the cuckoo, the train, the muffled drum
 You say, "I am echo
 I am cleaner of floors
 Sower of sores"
 And policeman in brambles and bubbles
 Call the beauty to rest
 Say, "I am echo"
 And rise with peacocks
 Feral and horizon
 The beauty moved over me
 And the beauty crashed down over my body
 With wine and dreams creeping down from the bookcases
 And saying "I am echo; I am you; speak me; release me;
 Kill me and leave the cat to G+D and rain and pussy willows"
 Falling like paws and snowing tears and the voice Shuts silent liar
