The Pig - Showbread

I know the way inside my heart

But nothing seems to get that far

I’ve spent my life down on my back

It falls asleep, it pops and cracks

And when the sun comes up again

My body dries and shrivels

Then some nice man is over me

So I throw up and giggle

There was a time when I was blank and see-through

But never white as snow

Just made of rippled glass

I thought that it was sealed, but now i know

In goes a tiny seed that splits open with rotten spice and sage

And then the numbness is consuming me

Just like a sweeping plague

My soul is cheap, lay on top of me

My soul is cheap, lay on top of me

My soul is cheap, lay on top of me

My soul is cheap, lay on top of me

My soul is cheap, lay on top of me

My soul is cheap, lay on top of me

I peel myself up off the floor

Say «I can’t do this anymore»

But then my soul has run away

So I lay down another day
