I Tried To Hold the World (In My Mouth) Lyrics

I tired to hold the world in my mouth
I tried to swallow the mountains
Spread my tunnel, like a wing
And I was spread beside you
On a bed of down
I tried to make your arching fevered body sing

I tried to hold the world in my mouth
I tried to hold the world in my mouth

Your scars, a decoration of your reckless recreation
Mine are from the jealousy of war
Somewhere in a bunker, they were calling out my number
As I sank into the shame beneath the floor

I tried to hold the world in my mouth
I tried to hold the world in my mouth

Some old gypsy found me there
A hundred years from anywhere
She washed my muddy hair in rival blood
Re-born as the survivor
Her hair danced like a fire
As she dragged me through the murder and the flood

I tried to hold the world in my mouth
I tried to hold the world in my mouth

My mind of wrinkled matter
Has been stretched out on the latter
As she prods it with her finger-nailed swords
We walked the sands of Germany
In a crooked German time to be
The starving incarnation of the Lord

I tried to hold the world in my mouth
I tried to hold the world in my mouth

She's eleven different lovers, in the irrigated covers
And I hydroplane above her, like a ship of bones and mean
And her, the mouth of trinity
Dropped gently to her wounded knee
And drained my swallowed world between her teeth

I tried to hold the world in my mouth
I tried to hold the world in my mouth
I tried to hold the world in my mouth
I tried to hold the world
In my mouth
