lyrics

i
wont knit a single
stitch, wont pull the thread of
it. the mouth of a stray
dog cleans the cut with spit.
with obedience to
bliss, cerberus and his
kin, guard builds and towers
lost with barriers of skin.
a cautious river in mist,
my sins are carried
with the grasp of innocence
from a worried kid.
ironically, how im
split! daggers landed in
fits. imperious lands like
guilt, they draw closer still.
mind the slow crawl to decline,
sever the closest
ties. knives out and pick a
side, patch the open eye.

come beyond the grove to roses in the dead of night.
i feel the sorrow in me dance between the shadow and the light.
turn around the corner, see the house of oak and vine, like flooded okavango deltas in the ides

i
wont knit a single
stitch, wont pull the thread of
this. the mouth of a stray
dog cleans the cut with spit.
so unsettling - it’s grin,
four legs and bones of
sticks, adaptable and
quick, the mask of infinite.

come beyond the grove to roses in the dead of night.
i feel the sorrow in me dance between the shadow and the light.
turn around the corner, see the house of oak and vine, like flooded okavango deltas in the ides

i lost what day it is,
i live for the worst of it.

i
wont knit a single
stitch, wont pull the thread of
this. the mouth of a stray
dog cleans the cut with spit.
