"I found a small red boy inside my tummy
With three dollars in change and a Milky Way Lite
In my occasional pursuit to find something more meaningful
Than yet another word that rhymes with "die"
I cut him out and put him on my table
His shallow-breathing chest would fall and rise
His South of Heaven shirt was way too big for him
His horns were long and sharp
And then, he opened up those eyes that said:
"I am, I am, I am, I am the truth"


Blurb: A five minute song (or 12 page comic) about giving birth to your inner demon, loving it, and being transformed by it.

Why is it worth your time?: This song is transcendent, a religious experience in song/comics form that can move people to tears. Apparently it's even more intense when performed live. And seeing as the lyrics include the line "the loved ones in and out of us," I feel like seeing it as a plural song isn't that wild.

Plural Tags: spiritual? otherworld? this song is hard to define, even more so than the others

Content Warnings: Contain spoilers; see comments below.

Accessibility Notes: You can find the lyrics anywhere; the song costs $1 USD on Bandcamp. There is also a free comics adaptation online!
