Shutters

Like water from a whale spout
 The spraying veils its ground
 What's dug inside the body
 A black gasp bubbling out
 Oh as the ocean is bled dry
 A mountain is a mouth eating up the sky
 Oh as the ocean is bled dry
 A valley cuts the tongue from its gullet
 Who knows who will say what now?
 Old as the water we sigh
 A mountain is a mouth eating up the sky
 Oh as the ocean is bled dry
 A valley cuts the tongue from its gullet
 Who knows who will say what now?
 Sigh along and our sighs align
 We'll set a table and drink some wine
 Fine tether of the moon-yard view
 You pause as the pleasure misconstrues
 Whats real and what's entombed
 Sigh along or silence be
 Be our song
 And it calms me down
 Don't try to calm me down
 Hey hoorah
 Don't try to calm me down
 And the whale is sleeping
 The tongue's inclined
 And we spout and speak to reveal the rush
 as it bubbles out
 And it calms me down
