Strands & Lines
when will there be all strands and lines drawn here before me?
when will there be? its lit from one side,
the smile strikes the floor: there's nothing more....
we only hope that your content
it seems your mind is fully bent
and it always seems to be that hovering for all to see there's some other priority
and it makes me ask this question
it makes me ask this question
above me, to love me
too many metaphors in my head
not enough spoken, too much unsaid
'neath fickle feathers doth flesh reside?
projecting everywhere; old flames thrown
be your love so brittle? be your love so worn?
so thinly spread and so cleanly shorn?
and then you'd tear his bloody lights out!
tear his bloody lights out!
tear his bloody lights out and you've canceled all my rights out....
and its pick me up,
and bind me up,
and raising up,
you hoist me up.....
but the wind she calms, she says "love, it wasn't so" the forest folds and lets the memory go
curled into arms about her waist he lays his head
tears are shed, old convictions buck and sway
but still that ghosts not dead...
sing: when will there be?
all strands and lines, chips and shavings.
incensed, intention to spree.
the mouth forces shapes,
but nothing is heard,
no not a word.
