| Last night I watched the moon drink the tides | |
| 'Til a whale rose from the hole in the sea | |
| She breathed in the clouds like an opium ride | |
| Smiled, and devoured me | |
| My flesh had melted when my mind awoke | |
| To feel her tail tear open the sky | |
| Fins punctured cities, bled sulfur and smoke | |
| I wept as the last scream died | |
| She spat my soul onto a planet of dust | |
| My thoughts dissolved into the grain | |
| Whale became woman, the sun gazed with lust | |
| He took her, and fathered the rain | |
| From this coupling my shell grew green | |
| Rainforests sprung from my skin and soil | |
| Mountains spawned cells, apes, and all in between | |
| And I understood | |
| I am this mortal coil | |
| I am this mortal coil |
