Lyrics
I am in love with the waking
I am in love with the state of being awake and aware.
It is cold but I ain't mistaking
Although it is cold, I am certain and not making a mistake.
Proud like Mary to be here again
Proud like Mary, expressing joy to be present again.
To be here now with my very best friend
Being in the current moment with my very best friend.
Merry go round I'm in love with the waking
Expressing love for the continuous cycle of waking.
And when I disappear
When I vanish or become invisible.
Into the night and out of the fear
Disappear into the night and overcome fear.
Hunting with sword and spear
Engaging in a hunt with sword and spear.
I am king Lear
Identifying with the character King Lear from Shakespeare's play.
Having a love affair
Having a romantic relationship or deep connection with oneself.
With myself
Emphasizing self-love and independence.
I rule if you follow
Asserting authority if others follow.
I spit if you swallow
Expressing disdain if others accept what is offered.
You've been dealt the cards but there's nothing at stake
Highlighting that even though you have cards, there is no real risk.
What is it worth when your limbs begin to shake
Questioning the value when your body starts to tremble.
King of black hearts in the parliament
Claiming the title of the King of black hearts in a governing body.
A skinny white boy for president
Describing oneself as a slender white boy for a presidential role.
Triumph at hand but still nothing at stake
Despite the apparent triumph, there is still no real risk or consequence.
