about

Music by Alison Hawkins
Lyrics by B. Bohrer and Alison Hawkins

lyrics

My shape symbol of sex
Stolen and shiftless
Bodies rise from the ground
Broken and weightless

Here is a single scream
A siren to sing myself to sleep
Swallow a smattering of shame

I sigh and strip my skin
Slight and suffering
Silence severs myself
In sections and sheds

Here is a single scream
A siren to sing myself to sleep
Swallow a smattering of shame
Hearing a single scream
Screwing sovereignty
A siren to send myself to sleep

Sustain my skeleton
Salivate I starve instead
Series of stones I store
To smother myself more

Here is a single scream
A siren to sing myself to sleep
Swallow a smattering of shame
Hearing a single scream
Screwing sovereignty
A siren to send myself to sleep
