here I am again
falling to the bottom of begin
all just to see it end again
and winter slowly passes over me
opens my eyes there's more to see
paper cups filled with snow
melting in your embers glow
oh, how I hold your thoughts with me
how I mould your harmony into song
Is this the world where I belong?
Life it seizes as it teases
never once letting go
but when the sin is flitered thin
the light begins to show
and making faces at the rain
will not shield you from the pain
and only the lonely know where it goes
here is the dance
with tight legged pants
and boots that stomp upon the soul
where love is above the push and shove
and space it fills the empty holes
I hear it but I never fear it
never once shaking scared
between the sea and the ship
in this life I have fared
and suns are the closest stars
remembering faces burned and scarred
and tear at truth till the bleeding shows
and the heart is a part of the human dart
poisoned with your fatal blows
craving waste is burning haste
and haste is never one to give
but loving life is loving strife
and loving is the will to live
beneath these crowns our tattered frowns
are pulled into a smile
when ravens call and pigeons fall
the shit it steeps into a pile
where eyes are open and hoping
for a last twinkle of fame
breathing life into the game
still understanding the quietly demanding
rules to the ways of the crippled and lame
tangled hair and tangled hearts
and broken peices of mechanical parts
are buried in the hurried sins
of the men and women we know
running from the stain of sin
and sinning at the sight of him
you lift your life up to the show.
