Appleheart Joy from Quitting by Marble Berry Seeds

Oh the root knot pulls you down through the crown shyness
There’s a maggot in a ghillie suit waiting for its metamorphosis
The holy father’s fingers reach up through the snow so crisp
Followed by his slit wrist
And the Applehearts drink liquor straight from livers clamped to christmas lights
Their thrones of backbone wickers glitter in the dew drops of this lovely night
The watercolor coral crunes of cannibals bring the cast iron fire delight
And you are dressed in white
When we sleep we are knee deep in our graves
Jesus saves, Jesus saves, Jesus saves himself for once

Oh we hid the language of our love in the pedalfuzz of crickets
‘Til our berry brains were boiled by the bachelors high on whippets
Now we’re ignorant like infants unaware of our existence
And the mangled manger’s mayhem won’t be remembered as significant
In the ugly merlot glow of the mortal sacrifice
The holy ghost is graving on the gluten-free flesh of Christ
The resistance with their wild red eyes
Found only fireflies at the end of the cave
And when we sleep we are knee deep in our graves
Jesus saves, Jesus saves, Jesus saves himself for once

I’ve got the joy, joy, joy, joy, down in my heart
Down in my heart, down in my heart
I’ve got the joy, joy, joy, joy, down in my heart
Down in my heart for once
