"Steel Bed" lyrics - ANDY PARTRIDGE
ANDY PARTRIDGE
"Steel Bed"
When I sleep me
Body dissolves.
The bed looks empty.
But the steel frame
Is an accumulator.
My soul-currents
Coil in the springs.
Whoosh -
Through the floor
Veins of ore
Conduct me down
Through chthonic strata,
To Hell.
Stumbling all night
Over bones of the dead.
I'm a fume
Without a mouth
To call her name.
