I've always kept their tablets
I wrote them all down through stone
They slid slate between my spine
Heavy vocal cloud drones
Theatrical masks on stained necks
Switch with the grace of cement eyes
You always used warm words to turn you on
I wish I could douse the lights
Make a melodic song
With your knocking bones
Lift my muscles like marionette strings
Capture thick footsteps
I'll hide designer lips
Don't let me see what your river could bring.
I've always kept the crickets
That hide in the back of your head
They're silent out of moonlight
I'm silent like you said
And you conjure your thought bubbles
You splash them in my eyes
You only miss what you've taken away
It's hard to speak with teeth she's tied
Creases mesh like your druggie friends
I finally felt above wood train tracks
I would give so many things
If I could take those words right back.
