lyrics

Draw the water. Pour the wine. I’ll light the candle for the second time. Kneel and pray. Shed your skin. We’re next in line for a good baptism. Door wide open. Cat creeps in and then he disappears except for his grin. The water’s fine. Why don’t you come take a swim? There’s nothing like a good baptism. Stars, they rose between the eaves. They were as bright as angels and as thick as thieves. The water’s hot. Cuts like a knife. Best to endure it now then in the afterlife.
