Black hole, you black hole
Muter of voice, sender of shame

Singer of blues, weeper of tears
Vampire teeth bared, fearer of fears
Loser of voice, no remains

Deadener of days, decider of fate
Committer of crime, courter of hate

You devour whole men, count them
Destroyer of love, avoider of love, distruster of love.

Wound under cover
Wound denied
Bleeder of skin
Teller of lies

Wound under cover
Wound denied
Bleeder of skin
Teller of lies

Black hole, you black hole
Hoper of hope, namer of names

Wanter of peace, teacher of task,
Seeker of truth, asker of ask
Quieter of noise, half remains

Beater of heart, clearer of skies,
Waker of sleep, revealer of lies

You birth whole women, count them
Beloved of love, liver of love, forgiver of love.

Wound heard and spoken
Wound held tight
Opener of eyes
Way to the light

Wound heard and spoken
Wound held tight
Opener of eyes
Way to the light

Stand and surrender
