lyrics

I want to macerate
The meat around your bones
I want to tear through your chest
And rebuild your ribs into a home
I want to inlay each tooth
In your mouth with gold
And I want
I want to show
How far you’ve come from the side of the road
I saw the beauty in your rot
And now the world will know
They all will know

Baked in the sun
The stench fills the rancher’s lungs
The dream of a bucolic life
Distorted and ravaged in just one night

The soft soil
Disrupted by dragged hooves
The rope shifts and slips
The unbreathing neck snaps

Bones and flesh and feathers
A parade

The rancher’s mind drifts far away
Discarded cans that mark the grave
The galloping builds from underground
The vultures gather round
This is their moment
This is the time
This is the place
What is left is mine

Defeated
And tired
The rancher
Returns
The heads are gone
The shells disturbed
Withdrawn and complacent
He blames the coyotes
And drags another body
To the side of the road
