lyrics

There is no power in the world like penetration
There is no soul within the self and its vibration
And its thrashing frantic mechanical raving
There is no fire that recognizes other fire
There is no voice upon the wire there is no mind inside a fire
There is no love
There is no camera pointing down from up above
There is no love
There is no hunger in the world that is undying
Just the creosote smell of the dead and the tomahawks flying
And under them you are alone
With the paper masks that you make of your hands to adore you
And the gibbering ghosts that make all your arguments for you
There is no silence at the grave of the dove
There is no love
And you can be the corpse-god of my heart
And you can be the object of my art
And you can be the watcher at the floodgates of my body
There is no love
And you can run your silver tongue along the contours of my delicate design
And you can take apart my words with all the courage of your desiccating mind
And you can fight with all your strength against the gravity that pulls you through the rind
And you can wrap your god in glory paint it gold and make it fine it is not mine
There is no pleasure on the earth like desecration
There is no soul inside a person who has left her body vacant
A cavity to fill with your crystalline perfect solitary elation
There is no love
There is no human hand inside the glove
There is no love
And you can be the icon of my heart
And you can be the subject of my art
And you can be the monarch of the ruins of my body
There is no love
