The Mountain Goats - Alagemo

The new rose floating on water in the old plain bowl. The white clouds on night sky. They way they just roll on by made me think of you, and the religious cult of flesh disillusion you've committed yourself to.

Alagemo. Alagemo.

The night crawlers poking their little slimy heads through the dirt made me think of you again, made me think of you a third time. I don't know where you've gone, but I hear your voice droning on.

Alagemo. Alagemo.

485. Alagemo

I really dig that line about the cult of flesh dissolution, but the music is a bit minimal.

The title refers to a poem by Wole Soyinka (tip of the hat to Kyle Barbour!) which is also the origin of the cult of flesh dissolution, but that's about where my understanding stops.
