A Perfect Circle - Judith

"You're such an inspiration for the ways
That I'll never ever choose to be
Oh so many ways for me to show you
How your savior has abandoned you
(Thank your God)
Your Lord and your Christ
(He did this)
Took all you had and
(Left you this way)
Still you pray, you never stray
You never
(Never taste of the fruit)
You never thought to question why


It's not like you killed someone
It's not like you drove a hateful spear into his side
Praise the one who left you
Broken down and paralyzed
He did it all for you
He did it all for you


Oh so many many ways for me to show you
How your dogma has abandoned you
Pray to your Christ, to your god
Never taste of the fruit
Never stray, never break
Never
(Choke on a lie)
Even though he's the one who
(Did this to you)
You never thought to question why


Not like you killed someone
It's Not like you drove a spiteful spear into his side
Talk to Jesus Christ
As if he knows the reasons why
He did it all for you
He did it all for you
He did it all for you"

Album Mer de Noms (2000)

Traversée

J'embarque mon âme sur ce vaisseau d'Opale qui s'éloigne du rivage
Je quitte cette Terre et ces hommes, ne pouvant y faire face
Je quitte leur laideur, leur ignorance, la cruauté de leur visage
J'ai brûlé tous mes biens, il n'en reste aucune trace

La brume enveloppe mon navire, de son silence palpable l'entoure
J'avance lentement vers toi, bercé par la douceur des flots
La nuit se lève drapant le ciel d'un brocart tissé dans le velours
Promesse d'un long voyage vers mon égo

Je m'en vais m'oublier dans ton antre protectrice
Je m'en vais m'enivrer de ta substance
Douce exaltation qui dans mes fluides s'immisce
Mon esprit se fait écho de ta transe

Spirale éphémère, volute évanescente
Je glisse vers l'ailleurs, vers l'infini
