Beside my brother named keeping Honest he sees me as As I see his faith Beneath this shelter He opens, knowing to the ending outside We, bodies cowardly Deliberate entries A contrived system agrees Be longings in prayer Another brother I meet, still struggling outside Outside his mind, torn paradigm Splits for his phonecall on high Distance of his fence Parables tall in the telling Back in temporary home Making as congregates Making in given faiths we lean Enough for us To be, deliberating The repeal of gnashing hunger Found, shelters sound The cafeteria calls

My Name Became Shelter
Beside my brother named keeping Honest he sees me as As I see his faith Beneath this shelter He opens, knowing to the ending outside We, bodies cowardly Deliberate entries A contrived system agrees Be longings in prayer Another brother I meet, still struggling outside Outside his mind, torn paradigm Splits for his phonecall on high Distance of his fence Parables tall in the telling Back in temporary home Making as congregates Making in given faiths we lean Enough for us To be, deliberating The repeal of gnashing hunger Found, shelters sound The cafeteria calls
