Chyrsalis Lyrics

Chyrsalis

Spider weaves a spit green sea

That tangles up and drowns the fly -- poor fly

Well, he's got pneumonia just like me

But he can't swim as well as I

And I realized as I watched him die

Near this bed of mine

There was a secret to vision, a fairy tale madness

Rise on mercury pearl

I was strangled in the blankets sweatin'

Fightin' for my poor short life -- poor fly

Floating infinitesemal I felt it bloom with graceful eyes

And I said good-bye to my future joys

Lying mummified.

There was a secret to vision, a fairy tale madness

Rise on mercury pearl

Steam heater hissing, grandma is kissing,

Staring at my box of colored chalk

The thermometer shaking

Fear is breaking

Comin' down like Jack from his bean stalk

Thus my little room became the cocoon

For my senses five.

There was a secret to vision, a fairy tale madness

Rise on mercury pearl

Rise on mercury I'm here to give you my world.
