Opium

Opium Lyrics

["Therefore I take opium. It is a medicine.]
[I am a convalescent of the Moment.]
[I live in the groundfloor of Thought]
[and seeing life goes by grows me tedious."]

Opium, desire or will?
Inspiration bound from an elegant seed
Subversion, through smoke I foresee
Erotic motions of lesser gods in ectasy

Opium, bring me forth another dream
Spawn worlds of flesh and red,
Little jewels of atrocity
Opium, I sleep in debauchery
And burn with you
When you burn in Me

Opium, we fantasize
As we fuse with your root
You are a strange flower,
We are your strangest fruit

Opium, it burns in me and you
Opium, it burns for me and for you

"Por isso eu tomo 昿io. ?um rem�io.
Sou um convalescente do Momento.
Moro no r閟 do ch鉶 do Pensamento
E ver passar a vida faz-me té–?io."

[Fernando Pessoa/Alvaro Campos: Opiå?¹io]
