G A C G [SONG]
D G I, I wrote a poem
D G on your porcelain white back
D G and you, you cut the cord in me,
D G and you, you wore the mask—
D G painted red, with golden cross,
D G and in your hands of glitter blue,
D G you hold the knife that cuts the sun,
D G the polished knife, it cuts me too.
D G And I'm nailed onto your shadow,
D G and I thank you for my birth,
D G I hear your voice, like silver crystals,
D G raining tears upon these words.
D G And I, I remember
D G I remember who you were.
D G I saw you standing in the ruins,
D G cut from white stone and yellow earth . . .
D G Then you come for me
D G Through the hills of iron,
D G through the leaves of rust,
D G through the turning white mist,
D G through the steel wire and underbrush,
D G through the lines that mark your face,
D G through the living joy that I erased,
D G beneath the pools of shining glass,
D G beneath the water and through the past...
D G You come for me, and you come for me...
D G You put your eyes in my head,
D G you put your voice in my mouth,
D G you put your mind in my mind,
D G you put your blood in my blood,
D G you put your hand into my side,
D G you put your lips onto my skin...
D G and you come for me, you come for me...
D G and you come...
D G And the fire will burn my eyes out,
D G And the water will run thick black,
D G and this planet will rupture and crack.
D G And you people will whisper with her name,
D G and your children will curl up in the flames.
D G And her fingers will touch the empty space,
D G and the starlight will shine behind her face.
D G And her body will show the secret heat,
D G and the ocean will gather at her feet.
D G And her two arms will hold the life I lost,
D G but her blue eyes will nullify the cost-
D G of attrition, self-hate and inner rage,
D G running down my face and through my veins.
D G I'll kneel naked upon the burning coals,
D G I'll steal the diamond that flashes in your soul,
D G if you'll come for me-
D G if you come for me-
D G will you come for me...?
D G And we'll rise above,
D G we'll rise and rise and rise above
