Wool & Water

drown in vanity
but all glass is broken
pity over me
just a wash of sorrow
seeing in your eyes
look a broken virtue
more impurity
than i thought i could be
rest now, for all that ails
will cure with sleep's fairytales

but the monster's in the garden with your power animal
and winter's substituting for every season
what's behind your eyelids is not God
just an image of your heart
this is what you wanted
this is what you asked for

drown in piqued means
to an end...to what end
questions over me
just a string of laments
seeing in your eyes
look a wish to repent
a thousand tiny lies
built too thick to rescind
rest now...

but the monster's in the garden with your power animal
and winter's substituting for every season
what's behind your eyelids is not God
just an image of your heart
this is what you wanted
this is what you asked for

 

An Icicle lives in Winter

yeah, you move with purpose
seek my heart and sink right in
yeah, you move like oil
burned and liquified again

strange, no rainbows find there way into your skies
darkened clouds and biting chill
are prone to make you smile
prone to make me run away,
but follow, follow

yeah, you trace the outline of my thoughts
constant in mid-air
tumbling forward from here

strange, no rainbows find there way into your skies
darkened clouds and biting chill
are prone to make you smile
prone to make me run away,
but follow

bracing for the second hand to
bring us back around again
I'll take it
give me walls that squeeze defeat
I'll let you conquer me

strange no rainbows
strange no rainbows
