Higher and higher I jump, harder, pushing you down deep
No, you cannot be seen! Especially by me!
I wrap you tight in wool, in wood, hard steel
I bury you in a jewel inlaid coffin.
Oh be happy, I am singing lullabies to you.
See how they soothe! Listen, listen close and forget.
I push you out, far into the sea.
Why haven't you capsized and drowned?
Memory rub worked on Anakin
So I scrape, erase you out
I drink from the Lethe
Bathe in salt but you stick
Yet you peep my heart, you weep.
My indelible palimptest, my mellow
My obdurate, my pentimento unobscured
No, you cannot be seen! Especially by me!
I wrap you tight in wool, in wood, hard steel
I bury you in a jewel inlaid coffin.
Oh be happy, I am singing lullabies to you.
See how they soothe! Listen, listen close and forget.
I push you out, far into the sea.
Why haven't you capsized and drowned?
Memory rub worked on Anakin
So I scrape, erase you out
I drink from the Lethe
Bathe in salt but you stick
Yet you peep my heart, you weep.
My indelible palimptest, my mellow
My obdurate, my pentimento unobscured
