Honeycomb Tongue

King of never ending kingdom
Come into my room and don't you mind the clothes
Medicine's not the reason
I do what I please and shake off your dirt

So if you have the time to tell me
What you saw in the light
Well never could I remember
One lick of what its like
And if this voice keeps persisting
It'll keep me up all night
So with your honeycomb tongue
Would you speak and set me right

Stories, I've been hearing stories
Anxious words the sound rings
Troubled unopposed
Not by hammer and gun
Did the scaffolding rungs shake
Make the story arc bend

So if you have the time to tell me
What you saw in the light
Well never could I remember
One lick of what its like
And if this voice keeps persisting
It'll keep me up all night
So with your honeycomb tongue,
Would you speak and set me right

Drinkin' heavy with the drinkin'
Of sour speech it leeks in
Whispering awful kind
But with mint tea your cup is filled
Not a bitter word spills from
Your blackberry lips

And if you have the time to tell me
What you saw in the light
Well never could I remember
One lick of what its like
And if this voice keeps persisting
It'll keep me up all night
So with your honeycomb tongue
Would you speak and set me right
