peter hammill - tapeworm - 2006 digital remastered lyrics

[verse 1]
when i was a child they made me to read
word+daggers of quiver and squirm;
now in the stumbling dark i see
i am a worm, silently fruiting your garden
my sister, my child
night casts ominous meanings on the purity of my soul
i feel devilish leanings i’m beginning to lose control
and the vortex sucks me in
steeped in sin i die
but am reborn
[verse 2]
(ooh!)
i want to see the cosmos slip
planets and moons collide
feel gravity lose its grip…
it’s all inside
all the dead husks are shattered
my life+blood, my world ripped apart
in the laughter of sp+ce
it’s all chaff blown out and lost
now i am making the pace
although i don’t know what tape i’ll cross
and it’s maybe catastrophe
when i cross the line
i know that i will find myself
or maybe you

[interlude]
i am a man from the country of destruction
i am a man, a woman and a god
i am my own weapon of kamikaze
and will one day cut through the hidden knot

[verse 3]
feed me honey and watch me rise
to the bait lying on the knife;
if you let me i can hypnotise your life
it’s all really so simple
my lover, my twin
hand in hand, sprinting down the highway
running over the edge
down and down into our doomsday;
there is no saving ledge
nor outgrown shrub
is this the way?
out in a blaze of glory?
some day i’ll find the answer
some day i’ll end the story!
