[Verse 1]

I used to be a king alone

Like Solomon or Rehoboam

And in the eaves the corvidae

Did jealous keep my picture frames

And everything did oxidate in place

[Verse 2]

But then you came, a single cell

With astrolabe and carousel

And algebra and symmetry

And none of this was lost on me

And I could see how still I'd been before

If I don't eat, I don't sleep at all

Like limbs in procession

Like so many birds

Stampeding like oxen

Our hearts are a herd

I loved you in the bed

I loved you in the best way possible

I loved you in the bed

[Chorus]

Did you see the light in my heart?

Did you see the sweat on my brow?

Did you see the fear in my heart?

Did you see me bleeding out?

I loved you in the bed

I loved you in the best way possible

I loved you in the best way possible

I loved you in the best way possible

I loved you in the best way possible

I loved you in the bed
