I left my spirit praying to some gods
and spent my better half burning in hell
I’ve learned to lay with sin and sleep through the night
at least in the night they can’t feel me
they can’t see me breathe and cough up webs from before
I’ve wiped the blood from my lips
but their feathers won’t ever leave my bled red teeth
so I lay my throat in rest on a pillow
and I’ll wake up when angels deserve wings
there will be no opening praise
or stronger saints among the sinners
just people milling about as hens
but not finding their comfort in groups
because I’ve soured the grass and spent the last of the holy water as
I’ve wiped the blood from my lips
cause their feathers now clean my blood free teeth
and I’ve pulled my throat from the pillow
as I live on while angels are stricken from their wings
I’ll always be a forgotten one
amongst skeletons and stinging hearts
from vacant tides and unsettled sins
through static and the storm
I’ll still always want so much more
for every ‘one’ there’s a thousand more
just remember for every ‘one’
there’s a thousand more just like me
so burn down your cross and give me your wings cause...
