lyrics

Oh, you know, back in Pauli Santos
in my broken home, that's where I left my mother dying
on the phone, now everybody's asking me 'bout Rehoboam,
and where he left his Gibson's ashes
Oh no, I'm waiting for control

The fold,
you cut all of your wingbirds
put them in grave holes
where you go they're surely dying

Oh no, I'm waiting for control
'cos now she's got to

taking my eyes out now
I'm an effigy, so distant in my virtues
leaves me so behind now
I'm a prodigy, so let down in my youth
but I won't die here

let it go, you drift away to leave us now, now that's all we know
when summer ends the ground gets cold and clouds with snow,
eyes glaze over limbs they lock around dead bone
I've never met a glacial nature
Oh no, I'm waiting for control

The fold, my body spills wide open, it pours out for you
these hollow trees in which we hide

Oh no, I'm waiting for control
'cos now she's got to
