Light floats down day river on uh red raft o' blood 

Night blocks out d' heaven like uh big black shiny bug 

Its hard soft shell shinin' white in one spot well 

It's hard place dat I'm livin' but I'm doin' well well 

The white ice horse melted like uh spot uh silver well 

Its mane went last then disappeared the tail 

My life ran thru my veins 

Whistlin' hollow well 

I froze in solid motion well well 

I heard the ocean swarmin' body well well 

I heard the beetle clickin' well 

I sensed the thickest silence scream 

Then I begin t' dream 

My mind cracked like custard 

Ran red until it sealed 

Turn t' wooden 'n rolled like uh wheel well well 

Thick black felt birds uh flyin' 

With capes of solid chrome 

With feathers of solid chrome 

'n beaks of solid bone 

'n bleach the air around them 

White 'n cold well well 

Till it showed in pain 

The hollow cane clicked like ever after 

Its shadow vanished shinin' silence 

Well well
