Tekst piosenki
The princes of Mercia were badger and raven. Thrall to their freedom, I dug    and hoarded. Orchards fruited above clefts. I drank from    honeycombs of chill sandstone. ‘A boy at odds in the house, lonely among brothers.’ But I, who had none,    fostered a strangeness; gave myself to unattainable toys. Candles of gnarled resin, apple-branches, the tacky mistletoe. ‘Look’    they said and again ‘look.’ But I ran slowly; the landscape flowed away,    back to its source. In the schoolyard, in the cloakrooms, the children boasted their scars of dried    snot; wrists and knees garnished with impetigo.
