Eliot James - Jocasta lyrics

When the baby's born Oh let's turn it to the snow So that ice will surely grow Over weak and brittle bones Oh let's leave it to the wolves So their teeth turn it to food Oh its flesh keeps them alive Oh its d**h helps life survive Oh the world can be kind in its own way Oh well your future's a machine With the mechanics of a dream And it's your mind that spins the wheel And your heart that makes you feel All the guilt for all your sins Oh and as that wheel spins Oh well it plays as they believed And for your husband you have grieved Oh the world Still deceives you as it turns And in my lucid moments I could see Oh that the heart may be The weakest part of me Oh and the moon controls The movements of the tide Oh but it has no weight on the movements of my mind But if you turn your hands to flames Oh the light will burn the same Whether you just pa** it through Or if it's what you meant to do And your sense of culpability Is from the guides that you perceived Their constant lie that you believe Will show you grace Oh when you turn to a ghost Oh but now the love you found Is raising you from muddy ground And oh the d**h will let you down 'Cause your curse will still go on the same
