Mirah - Shells Lyrics
You learned how to be a diver
Put on a mask and believe
Gather a dinner of shells for me
Take the tank down so you can breathe below
Movement's slow
You are an island
All the secrets until then
Pried open I held them
Until...
Mirah - Ecdysis Lyrics
Yellow black and nice and fat
My body did form a J
Upside down split from the ground
Insides out and gyrate
Harden into chrysalis I begin to pupate
Hormones will cause all my tissues to rearrange
Now green and gold is getting old...
Mirah - Emergence Of The Primary Larva Lyrics
See me born of this narrow shelter
Watch my smooth shell split
And then I tumble held by a remnant
My trusted friend
My black eyes behold
Life's dangers unfurl
Will the frost come before I can be buried
I won't become th...
Mirah - Education Lyrics
And I received an education all the while
I've come to an understanding
When you say you love me sometimes
That's all you can give
Love might just be an economy
But I don't believe in property
We don't own nothi...
Mirah - The Place Lyrics
Go to the place you think you'll be happy
And when you get there I wanna hear the tale you thought it would be
You can't leave your suitcases stacked up over here
As far as you go they'll never disappear
Doesn't tak...
Mirah - Supper Lyrics
Let me introduce myself
My villainy is rare
A perirenal scent enough [?]
Perhaps even debonair
Costumed in brown and pink
A lantern at my tail
Just like any other gadabout
Till should I chance to encounter a snail
Ah but I'...
Mirah - Take Me Out Riding Lyrics
Take me out riding
Take me out riding
Over the long road
Cuts through the barley
Glint of the barrel
The spin has it handle
You gonna show me
You gonna brag
You gonna shoot out the stars from a flag
You gonna wrestle
You gonna ...
Mirah - Community Lyrics
You have but two, we have six
We can use them to such great accomplishment
The sum of all, all of us all
Outweighs humanity's obstinance
You argue much, don't get along
You seem to try to do everything alone
But who needs...
Mirah - Where's My Heart? Lyrics
Where's my heart?
Not on my sleeve
Cut in my throat
A little choke
I don't wear
My heart on my sleeve
It might get caught
In the machines
What's the most
Delicious to eat
What fruit should i be
What fruit shou...
Mirah - My Prize Lyrics
Manna from the sky above
Spherical I shape my love
Such an appetite does enthrall
The frenzy with which I form this ball
Up the hill I push my prize
Lights affront and face behind
Never choose the easy path
For meals that come too...
Mirah - Generosity Lyrics
Remember we held you
Our bodies pressed against you
We required nothing more
Than what you provided for
The rings they tell me
How sickness befell thee
And all the wrongs we dealt thee
In spite of your generosity
It was all of ...
Mirah - Slighted Lyrics
If you were a mountain top
I would keep ascending and never stop
If you were some kind of store
I would buy you out and wait for more
If you were my native land
I would hold you close
I'd take your hand
And be your man
And dre...
Mirah - The Forest Lyrics
When we went off away from the forest
We did travel far to get a taste of so much more
We dug up the roots of all the stories
Put them in a pot and brought them to a fiery roar
We fed on these things without a worry
Never gave a thoug...
Mirah - My Lord Who Hums Lyrics
Listen to the stories of
The people who once gave me their love
If I am killed and not understood
You will never learn what you could
Make me of bronze and gold, ivory
And then place me upon the chests of the brave
This amulet pray...
Mirah - Following The Sun Lyrics
Oh, these ragged wings
Oh, these papery things
Ah but strong am I
I can fly and fly
I'm the king, am I
Earthly winds I ride for miles and miles
I've been biding time
At the over-wintering site
Where the firs are fine
A...
Mirah - Country Of The Future Lyrics
And is it the carnival
I can't hear, it's too far away
But love, with me you'll always stay
No matter which street you walk upon
It's the same sun on us shining
But see how mine is cold and pining
For the heat t...
Mirah - Lonesome Sundown Lyrics
Black river flows so slowly there's no knowing its direction
Just as aimlessly I followed you acourtin your affection
As surely as it's flowin down
I'll hear that high lonesome sound
Another solitary sun west bound
Towa...
Mirah - Love Song Of The Fly Lyrics
I take offer of your open window, oh
And permit myself the nearness of you
Even just the scent of what you've left behind
Drives me in circles of lust
Oh your crumbs and your dust
I enter each room and perform for you
Might yo...
Mirah - Lone Star Lyrics
Texas is a place where cowboys
Wear big hats and make lots of noise
Get along doggy, yippy-tie-tie-oh
Curious country, when can we go?
Lassoing my cowgirl dreams
And chasing down a tumbleweed
Bucking bronco cause a scene
Is Texas ...
Mirah - Luminescence Lyrics
Luminescence is ours, don't need a reason
Heralding pairing time, shine like a beacon
I've got the brilliance to let him know
I am so ready to glow
Light up the hottest time, summer the season
Nuptial scarves are mine, res...
Mirah - Hard Times (Come Again No More) Lyrics
Let us pause in life's pleasures and count its many tears
While we all sup sorrow with the poor
There's a song that will linger forever in our ears
Oh, hard times, come again no more
'Tis the song, the sigh of the wear...
Mirah - Story Of Isaac Lyrics
The door it opened slowly,
My father he came in,
I was nine years old.
And he stood so tall above me,
His blue eyes they were shining
And his voice was very cold.
He said, "I've had a vision
And you know I'm st...
Mirah - Credo Cigalia Lyrics
I sing clattering all the summer long
You've no choice but to listen to my song
I express so stridently
The joy of life persistent in mighty, mighty me
One of millions
Imperturbably I'll sing my credo with not a moment...
Mirah - Gone Are The Days Lyrics
And we were just a child with the mess that children make
And we were running wild, no thoughts for what we'd break
But gone are all the days, gone are all the days
And once we learned to hide, our size did keep us safe
The sidewa...
Mirah - Gestation Of The Sacred Beetle Lyrics
My mother made for me this pear
A perfect womb, a modeled lair
Where I will grow and eat my share
Of pastry rich beyond compare
With pressure kneads and shapes she well
The fruits of fields she has compelled
In shapely sustenance I...
Mirah - Oxen Hope Lyrics
You sent me off without a warning
Wasn't just a threat and man, that was no joke
Did you know you'd struck the final blow
To my faithful oxen hope?
We thought we knew we wanted what we had
But you busted your side of the yo...
Mirah - Bones & Skin Lyrics
If you live inside the old graveyard
Your skin and bones get kind of hard
You blame it on all of the ones who left you
If you're in the closet with a broom
Why don't you sweep around the room
Make little piles of all the t...
Mirah - Driveway Lyrics
I'll hang on to these last words
The ones you whisper in my ear
Before you pull yourself away from here
(C'mon!)
For the last time
I'll convince the sun will never rise again
And it's likely that you'll f...
Mirah - The World Is Falling Lyrics
We have spent rudderless nights waking up on a sail of regret
She'd sit up, upon the bed, and angled to the west
Dipped our fingers in, oh, the water, it was wet
Dampness and shame, salty curls around the napes of our necks
Punc...
Mirah - Oxen Hope Lyrics
You set me off without a warning
Was a trusted trade and man that was no joke
Did you know it's trucked the final blow to my faithful oxen hope
We thought we knew we wanted what we have
but you pass to your side of the your jok...
Mirah - Don't! Lyrics
There's no sense in breaking up with you
But is it what I gotta do
Because you hurt me bad
You're running around
You made me so sad
And everybody in town knows she's not worth you losing me
You know that I love to be...
Mirah - The River Lyrics
Skies went dark, got hard to see my body all stretched out
Territory to touch and make a path to lead you down
If I could hold the wildest winds from blasting through my house
Then I could shine a beacon whether floats, fine, yes, or dro...
Mirah - Song Of Psyche Lyrics
Shall I tell a tale of love and of jealousy
And of how a mortal found her own destiny
Born a maiden of luminous beauty
And revealed she was a flower so heavenly
But by this admiration I'm doomed you see
The smite of a goddess u...
