Joya Lyrics - Singles - Will Oldham

God bless the chaos, I'm ready to go 

Made my provisions written my notes 

Too bad that folks remain on the earth 

To see me deny no to renew my birth 

And even my swallow my sweet one of all 

Will be angry and bitter and briefly withdraw 

For I've done much protecting and hiding of hardness 

The awful emotion I never could bear 

I was always afraid to reveal what I'm knowing 

Like I have a particular kind of thing growing 

Indifference, a bosom ally to despair, 

Soaks itself in to the skin and the hair 

I keep all my cards at my chest without playing 

The ones that I knew I was all this time saving 

And rarely refered to it rarely gave clues 

That I had the deep sickness I tried not to choose 

That I had here inside of me a key to self-knowing 

So base and respected neglected and flowing 

Perversion and what might be called paranoia 

Description defies though the concurrent Joya 

And every corpuscle and each fold and wrinkle, 

Subknuckels, perception of what's within my vision 

And hearing distorting and feeling is lying 

But it never succeeds to prevent me from trying
