Radical Face-Holy Branches
- When you were young
- You'd bite your tongue
- Calm always did what you were told
- Never ran your mouth
- Lived life on tiptoes
- Only felt peace if by yourself
- When mistakes don't count
- There's a hole in your chest
- From the time that you were born
- One that don't get filled
- Cause you've always known you're nothing they want
- But everybody's bones are just holy branches
- Cast from trees to cut patterns into the world
- And in time we find some shelter
- Spill our leaves and then sleep in the Earth
- And when we're there we'll belong
- Cause the Earth don't give a damn if you're lost
- Now I live alone
- Work in the belly of machines
- Wring my soot black hands
- And I don't sleep much
- Days don't feel much different
- From the nights
- With no goals in mind
- There's a hole in my chest
- From the time I walked away
- One I fill with sweat
- So now I know I'm nothing they want
- But everybody's bones are just holy branches
- Ride the breeze to cut patterns in the leaves
- And in time we find some shelter
- Spill our seeds and then wait for our turns
- But for now we're adraift on the waves of disconent
- Trying to carve our place
- All in hopes we'll be something they want
- But I'm not holding my breath
- Trace your fingers down my spine
- Make your home behind my eyes
- Line my skull with harmless lies
- I'll bide my time until I'm something they want
