1.
the first word I ever heard knocked me back echoing from deep, where no i c a lightning bolt to my beating heart in darkness, crushed, torn apart in the jaws of a jealous god we cast off our robes and dive in the river we cleanse ourselves and drink deep that we too may be true we vow to follow this truth lead us where it may the truth leads us astray the river dumps us in a black ocean flat silent and still rudderless like every day of our lives the fog closes in, the stars go dark we are all finally free
2.
the daylight fades red rivers cascade out through the grey with eyes frozen open in a grave set adrift, cold, swallowed by fog it feels like it's hopeless we go through the motions nevertheless locking eyes taking a deep dive I got the thirst, I need to taste the salt I'm seeing too clear, I need a sense assault as far as I know it's not a problem it happens again and again and again man overboard living a lie mining for diamonds in the whites of my eyes losing my grip, slipped to the bottom rung tasting the drip as it numbs my tongue feeling the love as it fills my lungs it happens again and again and again man overboard
3.
once precious, now soiled once pure, now worthless mess once as true as a lie told by all and believed it started as a stain on the ceiling slowly spreading, so strange a sorrow profound comes down over everything I am contamination I'm poison you are you and I me a fever fantasy I expect you to fight until your last breath it's the way of the world since the day I was born and the day before and the day before that I expect nothing less cold on a winter morning pale as a plaster cast, a mask of death your sorrow leaked out and down through the floorboards I am contamination I'm poison I'm not the end just the end of the line
