Lyrics

    
cyclops woman got one eye in her head
mascara-clotted vision she is fed
cyclops woman can't see nothing at all
she got a pin-prick-spiral hole

she can't see nothing, nothing at all
she can't see nothing, nothing at all
cyclops woman dying in her shell
guilt got her trapped in nailed in well

cyclops woman is the eye of the world
who's reflection's in the retina?
she can't see nothing, nothing at all
she can't see nothing, nothing at all
dialate, dialate
