Under The Mouth

Scratch the windows
Bite off the nip
Does it reach your shadow
And dry your lips?
So hold it in, you're still reeling

Don't touch the faces
Make love to fear
Wrapped in new laces
You're far but near
Bonafide cliches, drums beating

Is it hard to blow the curtains
When it's easy to let go?
Of everything you held so dear
And time will always show
There's always room to grow

Over and under
Lying, remaining true
Under the mouth we went south
Only to see it through
Paralysed, mutually denied
Standing by your honest ruse

Tear off the stitches
Cold fire that burns
Old wound that snitches
We're out of turns
Sketching outlines
Of what could've been

Can't put fingers on the pieces
Too scattered to unfold
All these pages love these creases
The marks they are so cold
We are what we choose to mold

Over and under
Lying, remaining true
Under the mouth we went south
Only to see it through
Paralysed, mutually denied
Standing by your honest ruse

Under your mouth I fall
Under your mouth I fall

All this mess, isn't it a pity?
All the old dreams now dried out
On the embers, we'll meet again
