Crooked Lust - Bowerbirds

I was born a ghost

An apparition

Filled with holes and contradiction

And I fear I’m the only one

So I wake early

Watch the leaves quake

And the first light braze the trees

I hide myself in a secret place

Here I know my heart

I know it’s careless

But darling, you seem like you’re fearless

And maybe you’re my perfect fix

My conscience is, my conscience is an avalanche

Majestic, bewildering and holy and careless

Crooked lust, crooked lust

My conscience is an avalanche

I live with the tides

I live in reverence

And know the days are endless, endless

But darling, you seem like you’re anxious

My conscience is, my conscience is an avalanche

Majestic, bewildering and holy and careless

Crooked lust, crooked lust

My conscience is an avalanche

My conscience is an avalanche

Majestic, bewildering and holy and careless

Crooked lust, crooked lust

Crooked lust, crooked lust
