icarus eye Lyrics
lemon filled bowls in your home
lemon filled bowls in your home
those lemon filled bowls in your home
and mama said
oh mama said
oh my mama she said
that i’m a pyramid
the icarus eye in style
the icarus eye in style
it tattooed your breath a while
but pears in bowls
and sowing seeds
oh pears in bowls
and sowing seeds
mean i’m a pyramid
mmmmmmm
mmmm
mean i’m a pyramid
mmmm mmmm
oh soaking almonds in milky mouths
kiss yours into mine don’t let your teeth fall out
and roll all around licking your lips
open up let the mouths take drift
head in the dirt and i’m home
head in the dirt and i’m home
My head in the dirt and i’m home
and you were the missing elements
for a few glow in the dark moments
you were my missing elements
for a few glow in the dark moments------
mmmm mmmmmm
for a moment
mmmmm mmmmm
you were my missing elements
you were my missing elements
and mama said and mama said
oh yes she said

I like her songs a lot better when I don't have to think about the meaning.
I think this is a story about parents building you up to go out into the world, as with the story of Icarus whos father built him wings from wax and feathers to escape, with referances to mothers home and the lyrics "my mama she said that i’m a pyramid"
Other lyrics show a short relationship or sexual encounter "you were the missing elements for a few glow in the dark moments" being exciting but then crashing back down to earth(as icarus fell when wings melted) " head in the dirt and i'm home"
I love Mariee Sioux lyrics!!
