lyrics

"Empress of Tunka" (M. Loewenstein)

Dear sister girl can I kick it I just gotta know
Which planet do you hail from and does it snow
You took the blackened sky and painted stars
When all the lights go out girl show me your scars
Beneath the blankets in the basement while your parents sleep
I’ll be the keeper of your secret if you just let me say that I’m not what I seem

And then you say…
Don’t tell me what I already know
I’ll be right by your side
Just let the embers glow
And let the stars come alive

Headed to Mazatlan to feel no pain
That ocean has no memory so says Dufrane
Your skin is sun-kissed sand, your ocean eyes
Wrap me up tight inside of your Greek Goddess thighs
I threw a party for the Golden Empress and her friend
Though unexpected it went quite well dare I say
And I found out that we’re all the same

I don’t believe in everything I see
I seem to prefer living life with my eyes closed
That’s what it takes to intertwine with the cosmically divine
