Loneliness leaves bread crumbs along The trail Careless slack skin Bells on strings We beggars spilling soft glossy eyes Unto Palms of grime Pierced by silver coins Gold memories tossed by the blind Fall in droplets on our toes Could only pick them up By bending Kneeling Begging Beings in repentance Cupping the sulfur Wrath wrapped into madness Selling our flesh to the freedom of our souls Skinless boneless nerveless Tenderness still leaks In vain While fluttering moths Die in a halo Graceful rituals Covering darkness with darkness And sorrow still blooms Seated in the seeds of vulnerability To the slight sight Of undeniable truth

Black bile
Loneliness leaves bread crumbs along The trail Careless slack skin Bells on strings We beggars spilling soft glossy eyes Unto Palms of grime Pierced by silver coins Gold memories tossed by the blind Fall in droplets on our toes Could only pick them up By bending Kneeling Begging Beings in repentance Cupping the sulfur Wrath wrapped into madness Selling our flesh to the freedom of our souls Skinless boneless nerveless Tenderness still leaks In vain While fluttering moths Die in a halo Graceful rituals Covering darkness with darkness And sorrow still blooms Seated in the seeds of vulnerability To the slight sight Of undeniable truth
