Lyrics WHY? – One Mississippi

To not focus on the
Limb that’s missing
With the damn
Phantom thing itching

With much of the whole/hole intact
In this great anarchic expanse
It mostly comes down
To a gang of ants
Swarming on the shadow
Of a stain of a drop of blood

I know
I’ve got to submit to
Whatever it is in control

I know
Stop throwing shadow
On shadow and let it all go

I know
You say, «One Mississippi.»

January February March
Since you’ve gone away

Constantly rising from
And falling into flame
My body knows more than
I can form with my brain

And with a roar from
The deepest core cave
Cut a coil of those
Old spoiled ways

I know
I’ve got to submit to
Whatever it is in control

I know
Stop throwing shadow
On shadow and let it all go

I know
It goes, «One Mississippi
One Mississippi. One Mississippi.»
