Good morning, mister spider
your webs are glowing radiantly
screaming of blessed joy
gray walls are slick with slime
my skin is pale gold
I'm dressed today, am I alive?

CHORUS

So beautiful is the small ray of light
floating and flittering
choke on the dust
I'm breathing, showing signs of life

I'm a spider
oh look at me crawl these walls!
climbing, descending, fitting in the cracks
roll around in the dirt
routines, routines, I've lost track
give me my sanity back!
oh no, here comes the rush, such a head rush

the rats, the mice, the head lice
they itch, they claw, roaming the room
we've got to get out of here
small statues of shadows smiling
saying "you're the devil, you're the devil"
screaming, "no I'm not, no I'm not!"
I'll tie this knot, rip out my intestines
and drag myself around the floor with them
you can use them to suspend the lights

can you hear me?
Mister Spider, I'm talking to you
your legs are bent backwards
do they carry a pulse?
are they pumping the blood of tiny infants?
small fetuses strewn through structures
too intact to make an impact
I'm not aware of the illusions, my friend
what day is it today?
rip my spine out, I have no use for it now
I present it to you in the form of a scarf
they put a hole in me, the folks upstairs
they've ripped my heart out and used it
for their affection to God
I'm losing touch with reality
we've made a home here
oh darkness, oh maggots, let's have a celebration
the power of Christ has compelled us!
can we say we deserve better when
we don't even know what better is?
Don't doubt that denial is a dreamer
she's drinking blood with the whore of acceptance
you should have seen the look on the saint's face
we've wrecked the wicked path, shook it to it's core
I have no idea what I'm saying anymore
I just need sleep
that's better
Goodnight Mister Spider
