talk about the weather, storm into a room shattering the peace that passes all understanding, like the fragile vessel, like the broken pottery, some claymation caricature, living life large, narrow stream and in you barge, and rant and rave, until you realize you are in the wrong room, the one without a view...point, who anointed you, with oil that flows over your beard, and hand sanitizer does not count, as you listen to that song by Blunt, and stare at every girl as they walk, and by mouthing the words, in hopes that the lyric comes more than true, for that one moment, face and eyes that met, angelic wings will lift you, from where misery holds you... no chains, no ropes, only hands are holding you by your bare ankles, the hands you no longer recognize as yours.

No Chains, No Ropes
talk about the weather, storm into a room shattering the peace that passes all understanding, like the fragile vessel, like the broken pottery, some claymation caricature, living life large, narrow stream and in you barge, and rant and rave, until you realize you are in the wrong room, the one without a view...point, who anointed you, with oil that flows over your beard, and hand sanitizer does not count, as you listen to that song by Blunt, and stare at every girl as they walk, and by mouthing the words, in hopes that the lyric comes more than true, for that one moment, face and eyes that met, angelic wings will lift you, from where misery holds you... no chains, no ropes, only hands are holding you by your bare ankles, the hands you no longer recognize as yours.
