lyrics

A child fell out of the womb
Because there was no room
For him to grow inside
Or to hitch a ride
And when he hit the floor
The gutter wouldn’t feed
Like she had before
And he cried out a need:

To never be on his own –
Mumur for it, chant for it.

A young boy learned to stretch,
To poeticize and sketch
His thought forms into stars
To throw at passing cars
And when they hit the chrome
The world would be on fire
And feel for once like home
And answered was his desire:

To never be on his own –
Murmur for it chant for it.

A young man felt the earth
Owed him a better birth.
He aligned himself to an orphan’s pain
And seduced it over and over again
And when he hit the floor
All screaming, gagged and tied,
He begged for more and more.
That need again he cried:

To never be on his own –
Murmur for it chant for it.

Silent night, Holy night.
