lyrics

you held it all against your will
water moves from tongue to gills
calculate what you can feel before the holy eye
the clumsy hands of clumsy boys
keep them a secular joy
keep all your charm and all your poise while you destroy them

and you hang it on your will, pretending that you will
and i can't help but take the blame
for broken flowers, broken names
you opened up and held your shame
you held your tears until i came

you held it all against the sky
parts that move and never die
be still and soothe but never try to understand them
we talk and talk, but never learn
mouth to mouth to ear to word
the holy eye and the absurd, i want to destroy them
