Raspberry Lime Moons [Verse 1] The saucer sat on church hill Where the cornfields meet the sky Three small moons hung as witnesses The night refused to die The candy court assembled In their raspberry and lime The old king took the center aisle And counted out the time [Pre-Chorus] He said, son, I've heard your appetite I've read your military file I've measured your teeth and weighed your worth Now I'll walk her down the aisle [Chorus] Eat and be eaten Love and be true All that I hunger for Is answered by you Through kingdom and cornfield Through red light and war The feast is beginning The vow is the door Captain White, take your bride Let the sweet world know Two catastrophic lovers With nowhere left to go But here [Verse 2] She came in a crown that hummed and sang Her robe was burning bright Her eyes said: I kept your name inside my jaws Until tonight The generals wept The gummy soldiers stood And somebody in the back said I didn't think he could [Pre-Chorus] The king leaned down and whispered What only fathers say Then placed her hand in Captain White's And turned his face away [Chorus] Eat and be eaten Love and be true All that I hunger for Is answered by you Through kingdom and cornfield Through red light and war The feast is beginning The vow is the door Captain White, take your bride Let the sweet world know Two catastrophic lovers With nowhere left to go But here [Bridge] He said: I have crossed the red lights I have faced the ancient king I have tasted every battlefield And nothing tasted like this thing She said: I kept your throne in silence I have mourned you like a widow I have worn the heavy sweetness And I'd wear it still tomorrow He said: I vow my appetite to you alone She said: I vow my empire to your bone We are the gummy and the hunger We are the signal and the meat We are the once and future feast [Breakdown] The old king raised his licorice fist The candy court erupted The moon went gold The cornfield shook And the whole sweet world combusted [Final Chorus] Eat and be eaten Love and be true All that I hunger for Is answered by you Through kingdom and cornfield Through red light and war The feast is beginning The vow is the door Captain White, take your bride Let the whole world know Two catastrophic lovers With nowhere left to go But here Together Here [Outro] The old king danced When nobody saw He smiled for one moment With his licorice jaw The three small moons went soft and low The gummy court began to glow Captain White held what he'd earned And the sweet world turned
