Promise |
| Open-hearted as a heart can be |
| 'Cause we’re all a ruin like broken leaves |
| I give you me in oceans of tears up to my knees |
| Stitched together like pants and sleeves |
| I carry this carapace worn thin by he and she |
| Danced to dust and dusk and |
| Strung along the highway |
| I found my way, belligerent |
| Following the stars of your eyes |
| Promise me you’ll cherish |
| This tarnished offering |
| And if you take me inside |
| And you give me a place to hide and cry |
| I’ll bathe you in the crystal light |
| That sleeps between my thighs |
| At times you fear that the angel’s sigh |
| To the lord and heavens that this ain’t right |
| But in this chalice you’ll find the wine |
| Our hands hold bonfires burning bright |
| And the heart is dumb and the heart is blind |
| But I think you’ll find that the lord is kind |
| And I pray you’ll cherish this tarnished offering |
| Burnt silver brushed lavender offspring |
| Promise me you’ll cherish |
| This tarnished offering |
| Burnt silver brushed lavender offpsring |
| Sprung from me when first we kissed |
| You held me quietly, a rush purged me of my past |
| Opened a desert of diamonds vast, glinting |
| And a tiny chorus of swallows |
| Swung open the door freed the caged bees and wallows swarm |
| Geometric patterns on the sun |
| Eclipse, new moon |
| Tempt my werewolf not to run |
| Tempt my werewolf not to run |
