"Thickets"
[Just a little further up the hill, boy.
You'll be home, soon enough]
All along the river
Heading fast as I could
Watch as the wasteland flowers
Old cars and rubbish flourish
The black berries and red berries
Sweet black berries
Taste red berries
berries, berries
Went looking for my tower
Off all the rails and the roads
In need of resurrection
As my desires and power
are growing in thickets
Tall all around me
Tall and all around me
Tall around me
Around
Around
Around now
Well, have I been traveling so long
that I've forgot how to stop?
Why are my breaks all broken?
Wheels spinning out of control
and then in the mirror, pale and deathly I have become
Well, what have I become? Mother?
What have I become? become, become, become now
Oh, now
And all my wastelands flower
[And all my wastelands flower]
And all my thickets grow now
[grow]
And all my wastelands flower
[why all my wastelands flower]
And all my thickets grow tall and tall
[grow]
Tall and tall, tall, tall,
[grow]
tall all around
All around me
[around]
[pale and deathly, as all wasteland flowers
and all thickets grow, pale and deathly
as all your wasteland flowers and all your thickets grow
pale and deathly as all your wasteland flowers
and all your thickets grow
pale and deathly as all your wasteland flowers
and all your thickets grow]
What have I become now?
Pale and deathly I have become
What have I become?
become, become, become now
become, become, become now
[around]
