Accidental Seabirds - Luvuvhu (last feast) Lyrics
Choking on the warm spring airwet from birththe blackened soil sticks to your chinWalking within the hourfollow close, beware their stalking teethKeep your nostrils open widewho knows where the hunters hidethey’re closer than you thinkLearning to fill the mouthshow no sympathyit takes a life to make a lifeLeaving the land alonecareful out thereone big hungry smileHere we are a common brainwhy are not the rest the samewhy the option toStay in the place where you feel safeyou may call it home, but you can’tdrink the waterwith the teeth so near& they fight just to establish their dominancewhile we buy our way to a better day& they cry watching their starving young being devouredwhile we drive the injured to hospitals & the sick to bedSafe in the place that we call homefar from primal fearwhere you can’t drink the waterwith the teeth so nearSo the night swallows the sun & the colored worldwhile we light candles to start up a conversationStay in the place where you feel safeyou may call it homebut you can’t drink the waterwith the teeth so near
