She Who Mars the Skin of Gods |
«Kezia, my darling, please never forget |
This world’s got the substance of a frozen summer silhouette,» |
Said my mother through lips that were cracked with love and toil |
Before she added, «the warmest of blankets is six feet of soil.» |
She wore a perfume called «Pride» that smells a lot more like «Shame.» |
So when she walked into the room I was sleeping, I heard her curse my father’s |
name; |
It was our situation, our position, our gender to blame |
It was the lonely grey of my father’s eyes staring back in the mirror’s frame |
It was the lonely grey of my father’s eyes staring back in the mirror’s frame |
«Mother Oh Mother, I’m shaking while I write |
Tonight I’ll stay awake and try to breathe away my fright.» |
«Mother Oh Mother, I’m shaking while I write |
Tonight I’ll stay awake and try to breathe away my fright.» |
There’s a letter waiting for me, that I have yet to read |
There’s a letter waiting for me, that I have yet to read |
'Cause I know it’s not from you |
And you’re the only one I need |
You’re the only one I need |
I’m tired, and I’m cold and I want to go to bed |
But there’s no one here to tuck me in, so the shotgun will instead… |
(I'm tired… I’m cold) |
This shotgun will instead. |
(I want to go to bed, I want to go to bed) |
I want to… |
(No one here to tuck me in) |
So this shotgun will |
