Playing Favourites

Am I dressed enough

To kill

My old skin

My old sin

You never lived

To see the mount-

ain side

I'll catch you now

If I don't

Woe to me

My old skin had a new name

Is it to be desired

Is it to be deranged

We kept

Running around in circles

Pericles and circuits

I've seen the light

Awakening the grass

Now it's only darkness

And darkness's favourite thing
