Welcome to the last time
|
that You can buy my answer with less than a question.
|
I would sell the hands off my wrists if they weren't so preoccupied
|
with taking the bread from Your fingers and downing this cheap New YearĄŻs wine
|
that we call Your blood.
|
And You can wait for midnight but my lips are sealed.
|
And You can wait for midnight but my lips are sealed.
|
|
In this garden I'm waiting anxiously
|
for my children to come and murder me.
|
In this crowded room, staring nervously lovers lick at their lips and wait for the kiss.
|
I've been sharpening
|
my teeth for this moment
|
and I'll stab with my lips but You've already won
|
|
Is there no resolution?
|
Well, IĄŻll call these rafters my gallows,
|
and strung up by day-old party streamers
|
in the back of my mind I can see
|
the merlot dripping from Your hands and feet.
