lyrics

I wrote a note on a pretty paper
It sang of every tear
With heart, we live
Still it doesn't matter
So I wrote it over and over
Till there was nothing left
I was out of words
Now I thank you for this

I've been disgusted and ashamed
I've been let down and afraid
I know how it feels to be
The one here inside of this

Over and over, the wheels they keep turning under the chariot on this path
It's a long road gone back

We’re on our way back to this
With violence on every lips
We’re on our way back to this

These things buried up inside
Come out - no you’re ugly now
These lines here among the swine
Don’t match the heart you used to have

Close your eyes count on your lucky star

« Dear treasure,
Do not ever let them X mark you.
For you are so much more than here & valued.
More than a galleons womb emptied in a coral cradle
& Pulmonary atlas’ aside,
More than can ever be mapped
By any rapscallion
Begrudgingly seeking an honest word or an
End to roads.
No matter what blue they might pull from the Crayola
It will never be your eyes
Or sky
Party shaded or otherwise
Or capture you laughing
A way I’d care to remember.
& So
Another year begets
My fondness
For the days when Men wrote letters
And but once,
A softness parted
To study lips
With a promised pair. »

Are we on our way back home?
No
We’re on our way back to this
Count on your lucky star
