[Intro] incense in my lungs gold dust on my tongue elevator to the sky button labeled “OM” [Verse 1] barefoot on the marble neon on the ceiling idols made of concrete I can hear them breathing sand stuck to my eyeliner sweat under the veil pray into a payphone static in the hail [Chorus] take me up, up, up in the temple fifth floor, where the wild ones dance spinning like a curse, so simple lose my name in a sideways trance say my mantra, bend it, break it burn my shadow on the door shake this body till I fake it leave my halo on the floor (on the floor) [Verse 2] tongue tastes like copper night tastes like code taxi lights are serpents weaving down the road you trace signs on my shoulder letters I can’t read I don’t want the meaning I just want the speed (yeah) [Chorus] take me up, up, up in the temple fifth floor, where the wild ones dance spinning like a curse, so simple lose my name in a sideways trance say my mantra, bend it, break it burn my shadow on the door shake this body till I fake it leave my halo on the floor [Bridge] [beat drops to half-time, bass snarls] (ram) on my lips (nam) in your hands (sha) in my hips (ya) where we stand we’re just bones in a blender prayers in a pit if the gods want an answer they can choke on it (hey) [Chorus] take me up, up, up in the temple fifth floor, where the wild ones dance spinning like a curse, so simple lose my name in a sideways trance say my mantra, bend it, break it burn my shadow on the door shake this body till I fake it leave my halo on the floor (on the floor)
