lyrics

There is a thing you thought you had.
In a dream you were so happy,
But woke up empty handed.

I know my friend's only secret.
Ask, and I'll tell you,
Which tree the birds have nested in.

Some heavy things fill your mind with images.
Some heavy things get you lifted.
Some heavy things fill your mind with images.

I saw the serpent at the edge,
licking tongues of seven heads,
at any hope he finds there.

I saw you rising from the earth,
speaking tongues of fire and flood,
though I walk the bitter waters.

I saw you in a dream,
you were transfigured in a body,
as I demonstrate a tree that birds have nested in.
I know you don't believe
but oh how sweet the fruit of Mary's womb will be,
When I comes to you in full bloom
and in my mind I saw Strawberry Jam,
flowing over mine and sister's hands.
