Lyrics
Meat - Erik Haakenstad
If I come to you would you tie me up
from my feet so clean to my hair so soft
If I come to you would you tie me up?
If I come to you would you wrap me up
do I look just right am I good enough
If I come to you would you wrap me up?
For an empty life lived through empty eyes
I string myself out upon the line
do you only want what you come down here to see
Sacred mystery of the flesh it sings
dancing with the ghost of our honesty
If I come to you, don’t tie me up
If I'm wet and lean would you play with me
would you live out loud all your fantasies
Would my flesh suffice your appetite?
If I come to you would you hook me too
would you hang me up like a side of meat
If I slap me down would you hang me up?
When you’d look at me tell you what you see
so much more than meat, a living soul is free
you’re blinded by how you think it’s supposed to be
Sacred mystery of the flesh it sings
dancing with the ghost of our honesty
If I come to you, don’t hang me up
When you’d look at me tell you what you see
so much more than meat, a living soul is free
you’re blinded by how you think it’s supposed to be
Sacred mystery of the flesh it sings
dancing with the ghost of our honesty
If I come to you, don’t hang me up, don't wrap me up, don't tie me up
