Wasps Songtext
von Pleasure Systems

In my dream I was a wasp inside your attic
I′d always leave but then I'd come back out of habit
To stay in place and buzz around the drywall
And see your face
I just wanted to feel small
Could you hear me chewing out the insulation?
Always trying to find some cohabitation
To build a home
And greet you every morning
I felt alone
I woke up with no warning


I remember when the wasps died that November
The air got cold and they decided to surrender
And one by one they fell onto the carpet
I swept them up and I thought nothing of it
Is this pattern always churning in the background?
We start to fly and then we freeze and then we fall down
We fell so hard
I never saw it coming
The wasps are gone
But I still hear their buzzing

Every spring they hatch a brand new generation
Your roses smile with the gift of pollination
They bloom for you
I wish that you could see them
The world renews with every passing season
I′ll spread your ashes on the beach in late September
Your bones will scatter on a landscape you'd remember
Join the sand
Something new will grow there
You'll leave my hands
Be everywhere and nowhere
