Figure me out
strong revenging words
follows the light
crashing walls
every curse falls
into rust & salt
over the fat lady's voice
dubbing the pipers' flute
dancing out of town.
=
it's somewhere deep
that's taking me
fast and steady
if I, for a moment undermind,
closing doors with shadow hands
wiping the smile off the sky
with an ominous omen
all my kings fail to lift me
whenever I deny my maker
stuffing my faith in you
I'm still looking out for you
in the dire's of uncreative violent moods
=
so hold a spare break for me
come and revive me
I seldom struggle,
for an introduction to god,
I have a new complaint
about you somehow,
somewhere in the future.
figure my intentions,
carve it from my soul
reset my frozen stigma
it takes a little time to take me home.
