AOpen up, eternal Dlips,
And swallow Ame.
Free fallin, through the aDbyss,
That's where I want to Abe.

[Verse 1]

A D

Open up, eternal lips,

And swallow me.

Free fallin, through the abyss,

That's where I want to be.

I don't need no parachute,

Can't you see the stars are winkin'?

This time I will uproot,

And down in the sky go sinkin'.

[Verse 2]

A D

Take me up, take me down,

Through the milky way.

I don't care, about my crown,

Neither night and day.

Well it's just a little bit,

Where I'm feelin' kinda naughty.

Take me to the tit,

of the heavenly body.

[Verse 3]

A D

Open wide, let me slide,

To sweet by and by.

Let me glide, let me fly,

Oh, don't you know why?

If I only had a care then,

I would begin to tryin'

To find a way somewhere,

to keep the night from dyin'.

[Outro]

A D

Open up eternal lips,

And swallow me.
