  • This is my first time in primeval light
    Testing my moves out in the big room
    Words pour out
    My holy body free
    I repeat
    That's why I say
    I repeat

    Flying feet over ruin
    Human ruin and the
    Garlands in my hair

    I repeat so you absorb
    That's why I say it twice
    That's why I say it four times
    When I feel good I sway
    When I feel good I say
    When I feel so bloody good
    Underneath the
    Dance with us to the
    St. Vitus down the hall

    Every stubborn bone thrown
    Underneath the moon and stars
    We feel our flight
    The plague danza wave
    Bring your fate bring your flesh
    Feels better than the end
    Feels so good like

    Hysteria hysteria
    Collapse and get up again
    We're the fool but the wisest fool
    We feel our flight

    Leaping through the hot flames
    Writhing in the laughter like
    The jester's high
    Shifts and rolls until we faint
    Every hour of every day
    Feels so good like

    Hysteria hysteria
    Collapse and get up again
    We're the fool but the wisest fool
    We feel our flight

    This is my first time in primeval light

    Crying
    Flying
    Rolling
    Flying
    Feet over ruin
    Human ruin and the
    Garlands in my hair

    Mappa mundi!
    Dance in the circle
    Circle?
    How do i know who to trust?
    Where do I start?
    I see no beginning
    No middle
    No end
    I don't know
    Who draws the circles?
    Who made this mappa?
    I see no beginning
    No middle
    No end Writer/s: Julia Holter
