Saturn

from Bird Heart by Skye Zentz

lyrics

Saturn the golden
Saturn in wings
Saturn the farmer
Changing all things
Saturn the monster
Saturn the brave
Saturn the master
Becoming the slave

Oh and Time, time time
is coming for me
and the mirror will not show
who I am to be
I am made of grain and stone,
of muscle and mead
Oh Saturn!
Will you make a meal out of me?

28 years and
28 lives
28 songs poured
Out of my eyes
Songs of the harvest
Songs of the plague
Songs of the famine
Songs of my rage

Oh and Time, time time
Is breaking my fall
Oh, but I'm tired of Time
Knowing it all
I am made of shame and pride
Of will and of fear
Oh Saturn!
Won't you give me one more year
To get it right

Saturn, I feel you
Saturn, you're near
Saturn, I embrace you
Saturn, my dear
Saturn, I surrender
My heart and my mind
I will be gracious if
You will be kind
I will be gracious if
You will be kind (x2)
