Eyes red
And a silver tongue
She never learned
She never won
Your likeness
Scraped out in relief
You dropped everything
To follow me
A foundation
Made in falling sand
A house of lines
Will never stand
The day went past
Without a sound
The sky lit up
And faded out
Hands tied to taste the void
A face escaped to the other side
Diamonds fall from moistened lips
Open up and let the water in
Head down
And seconds up
A final word
Is not enough
Warm blood
Melting thinning ice
On an open mouth
Five miles wide
Hanging from
The pulley rings
A life exposed
For us to see
Stealing my sleep
Those ankles bound
The sky lit up and faded out
Hands tied to taste the void
A face escaped to the other side
Diamonds fall from moistened lips
Open up and let the water in
Hands tied to taste the void
A face escaped to the other side
Diamonds fall from your starving mouth
The sky lit up and faded out
