I want to be still
At the whim of desire
Self-abandoned, but moved
By the intent winds that'll take me
Freed by inertia
What grows inside me
I want to be still at the whim of desire
The only motion, my longing
The want to be wanted
To be pulled away from myself
Through someone else's dream
I'd be still as a stone
In that perpetual stream

Someone take me until I am
Out of my reach
Out of my depth
Out of my flesh

Let this fire catch me
Lay me ablaze in the dried
"Leaves Of Grass," I'll grow
and I'll change
There's no such thing as a body
That lives through only one name

Lay me ablaze
I'm fuel to the flame
There's no such thing as a body
That lives through only one name
Lay me ablaze
I'm fuel to the flame
There's no such thing as a body
That lives through only one name
Lay me ablaze

This is where all things fall
Bottom of the soul, the molten core
The birthing fire
The bread of Spring
The rising heat's the breath of life

Lay me in an open field
Until the roving grass
Grows over me
I'll surrender
Lilacs and embers
Iris and grass
On flesh made or cinder
Oh! I surrender! I surrender

Falling in place by
Displacing myself
Flaying the skin
Retracing its touch
With what I wish that I was
What do you dream of
I dream of desire
The hints in my body
And how they're designed
The way that it breaks me
And splits up my life

Right there in the grass
Right there in the grass

Right there in the grass
Where I'm surrounded
I'll grow and I'll change
Lay me ablaze
I'm fuel to the flame
There's no such thing as a body
That lives through only one name
Lay me ablaze

Right there in the grass
Lay me ablaze
I'll grow and I'll change
Lay me ablaze
Right there in the grass
Lay me ablaze

I want to be still
At the whim of desire
Self-abandoned, but moved
By the intent winds that'll take me
Freed by inertia
What grows inside me
I want to be still at the whim of desire
