And when the body finally starts to let go Let it all go at once Not piece by piece But like a whole bucket of stars Dumped into the universe Whoooh! Watch it go! Good-bye small hands, good-bye small heart Good-bye small head My soul is climbing tree trunks And swinging from every branch
They're calling on me They're calling on me
Do you think I'm an animal? Am I not? Do you like fur? Do you wanna come over? Are we captive only for a short time? Is there splendor? I'm not ashamed Desire shoots through me Like birds singing (The way you move no ocean's waves were ever as fluid)
They're calling on me They're calling on me
I hit the mark! I target moon, I target sky, I target sun Fall down on the world before it falls on you
Like beggars, like stars Like whores, us all Like beggars, like dogs Like stars, us all
Shoot straight for my heart (And when you were near no sky was ever quite so clear)
Like stars, so small Like us, when we fall Like beggars, like whores Like lovers Get up! Get up, too far
