copper in the mouth

just wire or blood

what was the judgment

anyway

wasn’t it a little harsh

buried to the neck

the tongue out like a

pink rose

with the dogs coming by

giving the only love

deserved since the day

we were born

ignored

ignored

I wouldn’t be so sour

if the sour mix wasn’t so bad

I wouldn’t be so sour

if the sour mix wasn’t so bad

I wouldn’t have been

repeating myself

if one of us could listen

but my native tongue

was sold off

to jewelers and slavers

a lover to the highest bidder

only you

when you can shake me awake

otherwise

I’m making love to the

white noise machine

and calling it old friend

one of us is pointing at the

stars

with copper

streaming steaming

from a bent jaw

trust you

when you say it can

be better than this

but we’re repeating ourselves

we’re repeating ourselves

copper in the mouth

just wire or blood

what was the judgment

anyway

wasn’t it a little harsh

buried to the neck

the tongue out like a

pink rose

with the dogs coming by

giving the only love

deserved since the day

we were born

repeating ourselves

until we become clay

call it a day
