Say, write it down in marmalade Glue my eyes down to the page Lock my body in a cage
I?m told, this whole body grows I?m used but I?m sold I thought you?d have known
Held by the promises, that I cannot break Bent on the lines, that God can?t create And the motion of time, it pulls us away my dear, what will remain?
Burn it down, tangle on the words you thought found Bury them inside your velvet shroud Whisper soft and til, they?ve lost their sound
I?m beginning to feel a pulse As a half it turns, into a whole As your eyes give way, into your soul It empties me I thought you should know
Building a city of marble and brick To rewrite the faith that seem destined to miss And let?s scribble our names through the old testament And cut down the branches that we swung on as kids I feel the dew and the flood of this damn transience When the moments suspended, the thoughts and lists But it seems that our talk is a funeral dress Just a pretty distraction but we both know it?s dead
