The Church — Hotel Womb

Volcano pierce the air Ashes block out the sun Down in the lair, well, I met her there With a price for everyone I paid eighty dollars for this wedding ring I couldn't take it off if I tried And the cactus sure tastes strangely sweet As it goes down inside I dream I'm safe in my hotel womb Soft and soul-made, it's a wonderful room Sudden voltage in the night With a rain forest girl As we float downstream to the Amazon River Where the black waters swirl I say, why are you people wearing those masks? I say, can we be reconciled? She says the mother of the storm has to roam the sky Searching for her child I dream I'm safe in my hotel womb Soft and soul-made, it's a wonderful room I wish I'm back in my hotel womb Slip through the crack to that wonderful room Morning comes at last And she's lying by my side She's got the face of the widow who keeps following me And the body of my bride I say, why are those buildings swaying like trees? I say, can we stop for a while? She says, can't you hear the city that's hidden in there? It's just another mile I dream I'm safe in my hotel womb Soft and soul-made, it's a wonderful room I wish I'm back in my hotel womb Slip through the crack to that wonderful room
