Mick Harvey - Black Seaweed Lyrics

Algae brown or red lays
Stirring 'neath the surface
Black wrack seaweed

My loves have been the same
All I can now reclaim
Is black wrack seaweed

Like flowers torn away
From the earth and in decay
Like black seaweed

Picked up and cast aside
By the sea, after the tide
Black wrack seaweed

My wounds reawaken
To the crude gyration
Of black seaweed

God, she was a beauty
A siren and her duty
Black wrack seaweed

She had the sensuality
And the taste and smell
Of wrack seaweed

I stole her innocence
To the silent dissonance
Of wrack seaweed

Algae brown or red sways
Underneath the surface
Black wrack seaweed

My loves have been the same
All I can now reclaim
Is black wrack seaweed

Like flowers torn away
From the earth and in decay
Like black seaweed

Picked up and cast aside
By the sea after the tide
Black wrack seaweed
Black wrack seaweed
Black wrack seaweed
