Two Women - Angels of Light

And I, I wrote a poem

On your porcelain white back

And you, you cut the cord in me

And you, you wore the mask

Painted red, with golden cross

And in your hands of glitter blue

You hold the knife that cuts the sun

The polished knife, it cuts me too

And I’m nailed onto your shadow

And I thank you for my birth

I hear your voice, like silver crystals

Raining tears upon these words

And I, I remember

I remember who you were

I saw you standing in the ruins

Cut from white stone and yellow earth

Then you come for me

Then you come for me

Then you come for me

Then you come

Through the hills of iron

Through the leaves of rust

Through the turning white mist

Through the steel wire and underbrush

Through the lines that mark your face

Through the living joy that I erased

Beneath the pools of shining glass

Beneath the water and through the past

You come for me

Then you come for me

You put your eyes in my head

You put your voice in my mouth

You put your mind in my mind

You put your blood in my blood

You put your hand into my side

You put your lips onto my skin

Will you come for me?

Will you come for me?

Will you come?

Will you come?

Will you come?

Will you come?

Mmm

And the fire will burn my eyes out

But the truth will refuse to leave my mouth

And the water will run thick black

And this planet will rupture and crack

And you people will whisper with her name

And your children will curl up in the flames

And her fingers will touch the empty space

And the starlight will shine behind her face

And her body will show the secret heat

And the ocean will gather at her feet

And her two arms will hold the life I lost

But her blue eyes will nullify the cost—

Of attrition, self-hate and inner rage

Running down my face and through my veins

I’ll kneel naked upon the burning coals

I’ll steal the diamond that flashes in your soul

If you’ll come for me

Will you come for me?

Will you come for me?

Will you come for me?

And we’ll rise above

Yeah, we’ll rise above

We’ll rise above

We will rise above

We will rise above

We will rise above

We will rise and rise and rise and rise

We will rise and rise and rise and rise

We’ll rise and rise and rise and rise

We’ll rise and rise and rise and rise

We’ll rise and rise and rise and rise

We’ll rise and rise and rise and rise

We’ll rise and rise and rise and rise

We’ll rise and rise and rise and rise

Rise and rise and rise and rise

Rise and rise and rise and rise

Rise and rise and rise and rise

Rise and rise and rise and rise

We’ll rise and rise and rise and rise

We’ll rise and rise and rise and rise

We’ll rise and rise and rise and rise

We will rise and rise and rise and rise

We’ll rise and rise and rise and rise

We’ll rise and rise and rise and rise

We’ll rise and rise and rise and rise

I can’t live without you

I can’t live without you

I can’t live without you

I can’t live without you

Goodbye Jane
