Coming to Hell Through a Big Mouth

How can you view the world
When each pond’s
An open secret
An open mouth
Waiting to spout
Ways of dying
Coming to Hell
Through a big mouth.

And what should you do
When you can’t help but wonder
How lilies look from under
That desolate space
Hoping that transparency
Can somehow erase
The way it feels
When you hold the sky to your face.

Shackles old around your ankles
They get heavier tonight
And feel what it’s like
To be losing your faith
But don’t you tell me
There’s no escape
Don’t you go losing
Losing your faith

Don’t you go losing
Losing your faith.

Transparency can’t erase
The desolate space
Between the lilies and you
When you hold the sky to your face
And don’t you dare tell me
There’s no escape
Don’t you go losing
Losing your faith.
