Freak Healer
Freak Healer
deja-vu dealer,
I lay me down
this beautiful mutilation,
wanting sleight hand healing...
explore this freak,
contemporary medicine is a joke,
some call it deformity,
but you call it art...
I love your patronage.
Knock the voodoo doll off the wall
spit the spells on me, light the fire,
pin the sharpened needles
hug that strange replica of me
it suits me just fine....
call me back into you,
I'm careful about what i wished for,
my lovely freak healer
I'm at the kalfou crossroads,
I was wrongfully laid with the saints,
gravely bent out of shape
because of the shades of my faith.
look at me down in this hole, bothered,
tame the shapeshifter,
it fears you,
the shape of a killer....
black magic fidgety
bruised by failed castings,
amend the breakdown
nullify my failures,
bless your heart,
my sweet freak healer
mambo priestess
initiate the rituals
raise the spirits
symbols mark the grounds
pour the rum
honor the dead
zombies of me
in block form stagnation,
inquest a cure,
negate your deed,
call me back into you,
Like before, heal me,
as I lay me down
this beautiful mutilation,
don't let me be what I am...
I want to be a reflection
of your twisted intentions
my adorable freak healer.
