Bloodsucker from Songs Of by nathaniel russell

i believe in the breath of the bloodsucker
it follows me everywhere i go
everybody knows that I'm a number
i send signals from down below
there’s something wrong with us

there’s a mouth in the ground that sings
a perfect sound
there’s an eye in the sky that sees
one true tone

i’ve received the sight of the all-seeing
i can see through yesterday, today and this
we are not a name or a word
not a thing, i’m am sure
there’s nothing wrong with us

there’s a mouth in the ground that sings
a perfect sound
there’s an eye in the sky that sees
one true tone
there’s lips they shape the word that floats
like smoke
and eyes they hide the light/life you live inside
there’s a mouth in the ground that sings
a perfect sound
there’s an eye in the sky that sees
one true tone
