Living Colour - Hemp lyrics

How peaceful is my mind entwined in cord around my fingers

How sweet the days I've marked in knots I've tenderly caressed

So many times I've touched you, reached you, teased you

Now fingering these veins of hemp

Their hair upon my skin

And how gently, quickly you will sleep

Slip into my collection with its bristles, coils, intentions

Yet your words will be unfaithful before I set you free

Slip as life is bound to slip from this entropy disorder

Then tied and laid upon the floor in perfect symmetry

'Til the frayed edge of your lips on mine

Positioned, placed at ease once more

'Til this restlessness returns I turn and turn and turn again
