Your Mouth
Finding Sanctuary: A Journey Through Desire and Yearning
Lyrics
Your mouth is my apartment in the evening
Your mouth serves as a comforting space for me in the evening.
Back down to the work again
Returning to the routine of work.
It's no place for a living man
Expressing dissatisfaction with the harshness of life.
I ride around on the ice cream bicycle
Metaphorically riding around on an ice cream bicycle.
Dreamsicle in my hand
Having a Dreamsicle (ice cream) in hand.
Once over the park again
Revisiting a park or a familiar place.
I sing bombpop'll do you well
Singing that a bombpop (a type of ice cream) will bring joy.
I wait for day to be night again
Await the transition from day to night.
Ringin' that foolish bell
Referencing a bell, possibly symbolizing anticipation or alarm.
Your mouth is my apartment in the evening
Reiterating that your mouth is a comforting space.
And I sleep in a ruby dark bed
Sleeping in a bed with a deep red color (ruby dark).
Back down in the dust again
Returning to a less desirable state (dust) with an unsettling vision.
I see a vision that I cannot stand
Experiencing a vision that is unpleasant or intolerable.
Another vendor on a bicycle bender
Observing another vendor on a reckless bicycle journey with lollipops.
Lollipops in his hand
Similar imagery of holding a sweet treat (lollipop).
Once over the park again

I sing bombpop'll do you well

And I sleep in a ruby dark bed

And I work in the flames
Introducing a new element of working in challenging conditions (flames).
(No love shines down)

But if your lips would invite me
If invited by your lips, the speaker would eagerly respond.
(to come round)

I would fly like a starling from the mountain face

Your mind is like a spaceship that the angels might fly

And I ride any place in your head
