Originally written for a tape project called Radiant Girl Pervert. A nearly two hour tape containing honest songs written for a girlfriend. I originally programmed and recorded beats and synth parts for a live show, but thought, what the hell? Decided to make an album.
lyrics
They aborted Henry Darger from your womb
Flowers folded to their buds, the sky was snowing all through June
And there were cobwebs in my breakfast, little bed bugs in my room
Reaching out to suck my blood and in this mess I reached for you
Now my usher, my protector, he is gone
Oh with your skin, a sun burned pink
I rubbed the tention from your back
I wiped away a million tears with this old handkerchief I had
And how I wondered why a man can't just spread his wings and fly
When a woman loses power among the battle fields of night
Now my usher, my protector, he is gone
They aborted Henry Darger from your womb
He was the king of every child, every flower clutching hand
Little bulbous baby fat, his tiny fingers reached to grasp
What is God? What is love?
Why is everything so sad?
