Virus lyrics - Bjork
Like a virus needs a body
As soft tissue feeds on blood
Some day I'll find you, the urge is here
Ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh
Ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh
Like a mushroom on a tree trunk
As the protein transmutates
I knock on your skin, and I am in
Ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh
Ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh
The perfect match, you and me
I adapt, contagious
You open up, say welcome
Like a flame that seeks explosives
As gunpowder needs a war
I feast inside you, my host is you
Ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh
Ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh
The perfect match, you and I
You fail to resist
My crystalline charm
Like a virus, patient hunter
I'm waiting for you, I'm starving for you
Ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh
Ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh
My sweet adversary, ooh
My sweet adversary, oh
My sweet adversary
Ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh
Cosmogony lyrics - Bjork
Heaven, heaven's bodies
Whirl around me, make me wonder
They say back then our universe was an empty sea
Until a silver fox and her cunning mate
Began to sing a song that became the world we know
Heaven, heaven's bodies
Whirl around me, make me wonder
And they say back then our universe was a cold black egg
Until the god inside burst out and from its shattered shell
He made what became the world we know
Heaven, heaven's bodies
Whirl around me, make me wonder
And they say back then our universe was an endless land
Until our ancestors woke up and before they went back to sleep
They carved it all into the world we know
Heaven, heaven's bodies
Whirl around me make me wonder
And they say back then our universe wasn't even there
Until a sudden bang and then there was light, was sound, was matter
And it all became the world we know
Heaven, heaven's bodies
Whirl around me and dance eternal
Thunderbolt lyrics - Bjork
Stirring at water's edge
Cold froth on my twig
My mind in whirls
Wanders around desire
May I, can I, or have I too often?
Craving miracles
May I, can I, or have I too often now?
Craving miracles
Craving miracles
No one imagines the light shock I need
And I'll never know
From whose hands, deeply humble
Dangerous gifts as such to mine come
May I, should I, or have I too often?
Craving miracles
May I, can I, or have I too often?
Craving miracles
Craving miracles
My romantic gene is dominant
And it hungers for union
Universal intimacy
All embracing
May I, should I or have I too often
Craved miracles?
May I, can I or have I too often
Craved miracles?
Craved
Waves irregularly striking
Wind stern in my face
Thunderstorm, come
Scrape those barnacles of me!
May I, may I or should I too often
Craved miracles?
May I or should I or have I too often
All my body parts are one
As lightning hits my spine
Sparkling
Prime runs through me
Revive my wish
I am inviolable
May I, can I, or have I too often?
Craving miracles
May I, can I, should I, or have I too often?
Craving miracles
Moon lyrics - Bjork
As the lukewarm hands of the gods
Came down and gently picked my adrenalin pearls
They placed them in their mouths and rinsed all the fear out
Nourished them with their saliva
As if the healthiest past time
Is being in life-threatening circumstances
And once again be reborn
All birthed and happy (all birthed and happy)
All birthed and happy (all birthed and happy)
All birthed and happy (all birthed and happy)
Best way to start-a-new is to fail miserably
Fail at loving and fail at giving
Fail at creating a flow then realign the whole
And kick into the start hole, and kick into the start hole
And kick into the start hole
To risk all is the end all and the beginning all
To risk all is the end all and the beginning all
Crystalline lyrics - Bjork
Underneath our feet
Crystals grow like plants
(Listen how they grow)
I'm blinded by the lights
(Listen how they grow)
In the core of the earth
(Listen how they glow)
Crystalline
Internal nebula
(Crystalline)
Rocks growing slow-mo
(Crystalline)
I conquer claustrophobia
(Crystalline)
And demand the light
We mimic the openness
Of the ones we love
Dovetail our generosity
Equalizes the flow
With our hearts
We chisel quartz
To reach love
Crystalline
Internal nebula
(Crystalline)
Rocks growing slow-mo
(Crystalline)
I conquer claustrophobia
(Crystalline)
And demand the light
Octagon, polygon
Pipes up an organ
Sonic branches
Murmuring drone
Crystallizing galaxies
Spread out like my fingers
Crystalline
Internal nebula
(Crystalline)
Rocks growing slow-mo
(Crystalline)
I conquer claustrophobia
(Crystalline)
And demand the light
Crystalline
Listen how they grow
Internal nebula
Crystalline
Listen how they glow
Rocks growing slow-mo
Crystalline
Listen how they grow
I conquer claustrophobia
Crystalline
Listen how they glow
And demand the light
It's the sparkle you become
Conquer anxiety
Sparkle you become
Conquer anxiety
Sparkle you become
When you conquer anxiety
It's the sparkle you become
When you conquer anxiety
Hollow lyrics - Bjork
Hollow, my ancestors have access
Hollow, I'm falling down the abyss
Hollow, looking for some answers
Generations of mothers sailing in
Somehow they all were ship folks
Hollow, the ground is opening up
Swallows, me up, the trunk of DNA
The trunk of DNA, trunk
Now come forth, all species
Hollow like a bead in necklace
Thread me upon this chain
I'm part of it, oh
The everlasting necklace
Jewels after jewels after jewels after
Jewels after jewels after jewels
I yearn to belong, let me belong, let me belong
Sacrifice lyrics - Bjork
Why can't you give her room?
Respect her spatial needs
I feel you compress her
Into a small space
With clairvoyance
She knew what you needed
And she gave it to you
Now her desires are repressed
Arrows in the flesh
When she, when she found your love
Her nature bowed her head
She surrendered
She renounced the world for you
Now she's poisoned by demands
You cannot answer
Why this sacrifice?
Now she regrets the whole thing
A delayed reaction
When she left her craft voluntarily
For your nest, for your love
Did you understand?
Appreciate
Build a bridge to her
Initiate a touch
Before it's too late
Say the words to her
That will make her shine
Tell her that you love her
Your generosity will show
In the volume of her glow
Your generosity will show
In the volume of her glow
Your generosity will show
In the volume of her glow
Mutual Core lyrics - Bjork
I shuffle around the tectonic plates in my chest
You know I gave it all
Try to match our continents
To change seasonal shift
To form a mutual core
As fast as your fingernail grows
The Atlantic ridge drifts
To counteract distance
You know I gave it all
Can you hear the effort
Of the magnetic strife?
Shuffling of columns
To form a mutual core
This eruption undoes stagnation
You didn't know that I had it in me
Withheld your love, an unspent capsule
I didn't know you had it in you
You hid the key to our continuity
I didn't know you had it in you
This eruption undoes stagnation
You didn't know, you didn't know
What you resist persists
Nuance makes heat
To counteract distance
I know you gave it all
Offered me harmony
If things were done your way
My Eurasian plate subsumed
Forming a mutual core
This eruption undoes stagnation
You didn't know that I had it in me
Withheld your love, an unspent capsule
I didn't know you had it in you
This eruption undoes stagnation
You didn't know I had it in me
This eruption undoes stagnation
You didn't know, you didn't know
Solstice lyrics - Bjork
When your eyes pause on the ball
That hangs on the third branch from the star
You remember why it is dark
And why it gets light again
The Earth, like the heart, slopes in its seat
And, like that, it travels along an elliptical path
Drawn into the darkness
An unpolished pearl
In sky-black palm of hand
Flickering sun flame
And then you remember
That you, yourself, you are a light bearer, a light bearer
Receiving radiance from others
Flickering sun flame
Unpolished Earth in the palm of hand
