lyrics

Blue Linckia (Linckia laevigata)

If you were to severe my arm, I would grow one more
As I regenerate I’ll still have another four

It would not be the first time autotomy has saved me

If you were to severe my legs, I would grow two more
As I regenerate I’ll still crawl on the floor
These pieces please feel free to keep all for yourself
They’ll eat and breathe and grow into unsightly things

Haunting you with their resemblance of me
Though lacking any sort of heart, I figure they’ll fare better in your company

They’re all yours now
Please keep them well fed because they’re all yours now
