Viscous Fear

from Rale by Louise Connell

/

lyrics

A blast of tonic radiation
My skin dripping pools
Of hot adrenaline
Everything was gleaming like the sun
Oh, the sun
Oh, the sun

A little pill, a little scar
My guts in the sink and my hair on the floor
The poison in my veins hot as the sun
Oh, the sun
Oh, the sun

A nursery rhyme for the other side
A microcosm of my life
Coats a hundred glass slides
I cried eyelashes with my tears
My viscous fear
An eyelash tear
My viscous fear

A tarmac stain
Spelling numbers
How many years will the body linger?
I can't tell who won this in the end
In
The
End

A nursery rhyme for the other side
A microcosm of my life
Coats a hundred glass slides
I cried eyelashes with my tears
My viscous fear
An eyelash tear's
My viscous fear

I was promised tallying the clouds
Soothed with talk of finite light ebbing into nothing
I was promised
I was promised
