Hercules Guster

Looks like these afternoons of revery are through

What's left for me to say, what's left for me to do?

Float along and feel the water on my back

Try not to sink down to the bottom

Hollow my head, it echoes like a wooden drum

Peel back my skin and make my ribs a xylophone

Feel the water rise and fall between my bones

And then just sink down to the bottom

It's a simple love affair, dangerous and true

Her arms are all around, reaching out for you

She's a siren in the night, with streaks of red and blue

And though you've disappeared you know, she will get you through

She'll come to the rescue

It's a simple love affair, dangerous and true

Her arms are all around, reaching out for you

She's a siren in the night, with streaks of red and blue

And though you've disappeared you know, she will get you through

She'll come to the rescue
