Masm As Soon As I Am Naked Lyrics

As soon as I am naked
I'm already drifting
Deep inside you

Dark jade waters
Cut my throat
You taught me how to swallow
Generous giver

I've never seen a pool: your crystal
Driven through, clanging, a
Wedge in the crag

I left before five thirty
Feeling a hurt in my jeans
I memorized the weight of the sky
In a dead man's float

The sharpest beak
The sharpest wave

These are your gifts
The sulfur oyster spit
The sand under your fist
Crushed in your afternoon And I think I can hear music
When I slide a needle
Across my skin, written
By stony waves

The arcade sings and
I know how to drown twice
Once in the silence and once in the noise
Can you call me Venus

I am the one who loves
Between cups of slush
I celebrate the numbness
At the roof of my mouth

I still burn my tongue
I still forget to turn the faucet off
I was how I was
When you knew me first

There is a stillness, still under you
