Offspring Are Blank - Dirty Projectors

There was a single one

Then there were ten

With ten made a hundred

And a hundred million

You came and spoke to me

I saw your face

Your words were like raindrops

From a storm in a vase

Each generation different

He was made today

She was made today

And their offspring love them

And in the marriage of eagle and snake

The parents are fertile

But their offspring is blank

The fire rages and all through the night

The flame is contagious

But the heat feels alright

Can't recognize our poverty

He was made today

She was made today

And their offspring love them

There is a darkness I feel coming down

And shadows that lengthen from the sky to the ground

And a silence that can swallow sound

He was made today

She was made today

And their offspring love them

He was made today

She was made today

And their offspring love both of them
