Sanctus Effeminatus
Do you remember
When we walked to the top of that hill
It was dark
But that didn’t hide the cross upon it
Did you want to tear it down
Or take a final leap
Tired of it all
Were we sitting on the edge of the world
Or merely staring into darkness
Do you remember
The heat of an ersatz fire
How our flesh was cooked upon it
You let me fuck you
Like a fallen roof
Then love
Lined us up and cut inside
A rusted womb
In my movie
Just like the lies of this life
Do you still feed
The broken camera
Do you freeze frame the knife
Do you remember
The end of this movie
Or do you wait
For the final re-write
Should I project it
Even as we reject it
Cut off my clothes
To spite my mind
Tear down the cross
Take down that cross
Take me from the cross
There’s no resurrection baby
No resurrection
It all leads to death my lady
Birth is our infection
