The Woman with
Bees in Her Hair

Lyrics by Schreeck


When she closes her eyes she sees only bees
If you listen hard you can hear the drone
Told her it was electricity too late
She's already stung
Tiny black wings drawn on her shoulder blades
Tiny red lines under her sleeve
Try to warm her when she shakes like a swarm
Too late she's already flown

When she opens her lips her voice is honeycomb
When she goes out she wears her dress like a queen in yellow
She told me must be chemistry
Heaven knows tomorrow she's gone
Tomorrow she is gone
