Tell it with your eyes Your tongue is broken Taken by surprise By what was spoken No! Dont! Blink! In repeated motion I! Can't! Think! Utterly defined By your inclusion Totally inclined To pick a new thing How's! Your! Heart? The conversation Lost! Its! Spark! We were in disguise As Polyphemus When they took our eye Your tongue would lead us No! I! Can't! See a way out now.

You and me fell out the meaning tree And landed with a crash in the undergrowth, surprised that our hopes don't float Will you build us a tower? Build us a tower From your own skin and bone? Will you build us a tower? Build us a tower From your own skin and bone? The support beams are parting at the seams How can we climb with all of our engineers espousing their own ideas? Are you living inside us? Living inside us With our hearts pinned to your sleeve? Will nothing divide us? When you're living inside us With our hearts pinned to you? I tried the whole day to look the other way Wasting all your time Plain as it could be A wall in front of me An impassable line If we cannot go around, then we will just have to go over, And if we're carried on your cloud why should we waste another way out? We couldn't see the wood for that one tree And ended up here stripped of our uniforms nude as a newborn Reason erased a stamp collection worthy of all your days Man works in mysterious ways You were willing to find us, Seek us out, And deny us. With your arms crossed at the gate.

If you would take the concrete stairs At the government building Then you would find a document That says we're distantly related Does that make you feel weird?

hey, don't blame me If I miss a beat and lose the melody hey, can't you see to fit the pieces together's a waste cause you can't be certain when your temple hair will start to fade away no, you can't decide when your hair will go grey. take me home, there's too much waiting in the waiting room and I need more attention the cleaning lady smiled at me when she took the bin that I got sick in away since you came out all I hear's the pitter pat of tiny feet and it's driving me to drinking my disappearing act was curtained when i left the street I don't know what i was thinking The cleaning

7 seconds in you know i'm gonna sin some way Just gonna fold in You know the distance widens then those guys are gonna pay me Cause they've been pumping me full of modern medicine But they say: Take only if you want it Pump in me Then they're looking in my urine But they're gonna have to wait Cause their list of contraband is out of date. I lost consciousness a while after you spoke to me The dreams were okay but I didn't like the way they ended.

a fragile likeness the world ensnared in bubbles droplets on a stone this womb don't like us i can't escape the feeling something is amiss what they noticed on the sonar hard to comprehend I was bulging from your waistline sown into your hem lead me toward the morning I don't need to understand I am wrapped inside you you don't need to hold my hand (is it yours or is it mine? you can't tell when you're intertwined) oh please don't lie to us the world cant hold a love like this- we share the same heart.
7.
we shouldn't drive your car in that condition we ought to take it by the towbar that heavy metal was your own decision your feet were saying that it's too far well my feet were hurting too i can't listen when you're on the television, i can't even exhale. outside might be greener, but if I can't lead us in then I can't lead us away. pour olive oil on your tomato heart your mood has got me salivating if spotlight temperature baked your bit-part Man, did I find it fascinating I tried to look away, but I get driven to this same position so much (who put this in the script?) you're on the TV. you're on my phone. I think I've seen enough.

they say goodbye on christmas eve, they sing 'amazing grace'; the mourners then begin to leave the family to this place. where all the world is growing green, the sky is blankly blue, and where her shadow should have been the sun is shining through.

Dollface 04:14
take all your talents your talents come to one dollface, you've been getting on your body moved in all directions mine stayed in its shell a bucket in the well all you'll ever draw out is a smell if you ever tire of this all the love you've chased around here you'd be better off outside hey miss disintegration didn't I teach you nothing? you know I liked to sit you down, love, your ample body next to mine. It won't matter what you try
