Beast Of Jewels Lyrics - Prince Rama

in the forest pygmy trees 

there were none taller than my knees 

I saw the rock that had no face 

I saw the rock that had no trace 

of pollen paved 

cosmologies 

that were dispersed by cosmic bees 

that saw the earth as petaled seeds 

and jade 

jade: my eyes 

mercury: my lungs 

amethyst: my thighs 

carmine: my tongue 

sapphire: my nose 

emerald: my wrist 

carnelian: my toes 

zircon: my fist 

I know what I want to be 

I plated all my teeth with gold 

I said a prayer for young and old 

I stopped and stared 

I saw the house I saw the host 

I saw the pictures of the ghost 

I stopped and stared 

and stared and stopped 

we're in time and time to grow 

we"re in time and time to grow 

I know that you won't fade to gray 

I know I won't forget your face 

we've made a beast, we've made a beast 

we've made a beat of jewels and teeth 

that never falters when he feeds 

that never grows a rose from seeds 

our fingers let the light decay 

our fingers let the light decay 

our might was what we'd never ever known 

our might was what we'd never ever shown 

we're in time and time to grow 

we're in time and time to grow 

I know that you won't fade to gray 

I know I won't forget your face 

I know I won't forget your face
