Your faith is going nowhere
So pull your hands from this prayer
Aim your hopes to the sky like a rocket
And they will burn on re-entry.
May as well trade crosses for cubes.
They will not fall on deaf ears now
(for there were never ears at all)
They will not fall on deaf ears now
(for there were never ears at all)
I am the mountain that god couldn't climb.

Conversation trickles from the mouth,
Delicate and airy
Like the notes from a music box
Opened for the first time
Lightly floating music,
A violin perhaps
Captures every listener
Like a rabbit in a snare.
These pleasantries,
Repeated as though wound with a key
These faces,
Cracked paint & ghastly
Hanging on every word.
The moment performs a surgery
Music of the body
Stitched with a cello string
Each 'X' a tiny kiss
And a quiet request to dance.

She's got a skin
I can't respect
I've got plastic
Rhythm on my side
She was dressed by serpents (just for me)
She was dressed by serpents
So I leant in.
And never before had sweeter sentiments been whispered in her ear
Except for last night
and the night before,
and the night before.
Self esteem held at last seasons knifepoint
And judgement clouded
Dropwise.
At the end of the night all that's left
Is an ugly smear where her mouth once existed
Wishing they'd fight fair
Fight fair.
Fire?
With Chekov's gun
Between your legs
It would be rude not to.

Upon my chest he carved names of
Everyone he ever loved
The canvas was blank
The canvas was blank.
With eyes
Drawn for others
It was hard to see him
For the artist that he was
Lost inside his audience.
Ply your eyes and your smiles for him
With no woven strand, we abound.
Build for hunchback opinion, dirty acceptance
A product of clayman endeavours
Betrayal, betrayal!
The heart screams betrayal!
Compromise is my spine
The audience is my skin.
