lyrics

My body is a soft animal
Not quite domestic, but not feral
She twitches in her sleep and
She’s always full
My body is a soft animal

I feed her
I love her
I hold her
I heal her
I lay her down
I lay her down

My body is a complex machine
Every hair on her skin is pristine
She walks on coals in bare feet and
She’s never really clean
My body is a complex machine

I feed her
I love her
I hold her
I heal her
I lay her down
I lay her down

Well, I cut off a dead limb the other day
I was sick of carrying all the dead weight
I’m living without but the phantom limb ain’t great
I cut off a dead limb the other day
Was sick of carrying all the dead weight
It hurt at first but now i feel
No pain
I feel no pain
I feel no pain
I feel no pain

My body is my solitary love
Sometimes she does things she’s not proud of
She holds spite in her hands but
Peace in her mouth like a dove

My body is a soft animal
I feed her
I love her
I hold her
I heal her
I lay her down
I lay her down
