Vessel |
| I knelt at the sink |
| Like a priest or a prince |
| Maybe I’m to be king |
| And they’re waiting at Westminster |
| And the walls are paper thin |
| I hear the neighbor’s arguing |
| Could you lower your voice? |
| I would sell my unborn daughter (maybe) |
| We didn’t stage a passion play |
| Didn’t change our given names |
| Or waltz to our bed |
| Or need to make a scene |
| But I see your skin, paler now |
| Than the host in your mouth |
| Where the truth never seems to be |
| Now, the burning branch never speaks to me |
| It whispers like… |
| I don’t wanna be your vessel any more |
| I don’t wanna be your vessel any more |
| These are my words, this is my mouth |
| I don’t wanna be your vessel now |
| And I may not see the future |
| But I see its lonely architect at the door of my house |
| I don’t wanna be your vessel any more |
| I don’t wanna be a vessel of your doubt |
| Truly I never dreamt |
| Of all the dumb accoutrement |
| I would want for myself |
| For the shelf |
| I laid it all at your feet |
| On your neck and your cheek |
| But the burning branch wouldn’t speak to me! |
| I don’t wanna be your vessel any more |
| I don’t wanna be your vessel any more |
| These are my rules, this is my house |
| I don’t wanna be your vessel now |
| And I may not see the future |
| But I see its lonely architect at the foot of my bed |
| I don’t wanna be your vessel any more |
| Didn’t wanna be your vessel anyway |
