"Sunray Venus"
(written by Kristin Hersh)
Demo Version:
Unfrightened, careless
Unfrightened, blank
We sit at the young man's feet
Mouths working
And
no one remembers to pray
Working
in dull light
Another
island
Where no one remembers
to pray
Open your mouth,
you're blessed for the moment
Kisses all around
Sunray
venus, crushed underfoot
And
kisses all around
Leaving
that is limbo
Hell, I
remember you
Crushed,
withered, crushed in a moment
Brought your psyche down
Slid your brain around
That's some disease you've got there
A lousy friend
Pour
your heart out at his feet
Crying,
puking
Still no one remembers
to pray
Feel your way
through sound
Another
island
Where no one remembers
to pray
Open your mouth,
you're blessed for the moment
Kisses all around
Sunray
venus, crushed underfoot
And
kisses all around
Open
your mouth and fall through the cracks
Kisses all around
Sunray
venus, crushed underfoot
And
kisses all around
Leaving
that is limbo
Hell, I
remember you
Album Version:
Unfrightened, careless
Unfrightened, blank
We sit at the young man's feet
Mouths
working
And no one remembers to pray
Working in dull light
Another island
Where
no one remembers to pray
Open your mouth, you're
blessed for the moment
Kisses all around
Sunray venus, crushed underfoot
And kisses all around
Leaving that is limbo
Hell, I remember you
Touched, withered, crushed in a moment
Brought your body down
Slid your brain around
That's some disease you've
got there
A lousy friend
Pour your heart out at his feet
Crying, puking
Still
no one remembers your name
Feel your way through
sound
Another island
Where no one remembers your name
Open your mouth, you're blessed for the moment
Kisses all around
Sunray venus, crushed
underfoot
And kisses all around
Open your mouth and fall through the cracks
Kisses all around
Sunray
venus, crushed underfoot
And kisses all around
Leaving that is limbo
Hell, I remember you
