If I Had Wings I Would Fly

A Boy With Roses

Into blazing fires, I stir and shake myself                                                           

Unhooked in these rooms of delusion, I fall                                                                    

Into blazing fires, into blazing fires 

 

The night holds my heavy head underwater                                                                

And in this drowning moment I'm nullified                                                                              

My fingertips are numb and my voice gets frail                                                                          

This tapestry is stained, the water is stale 

 

Hear me                                                                                                                          

Hear me cry powder waterfalls                                                                                                  

Hear me, hear me cry everything is clear                                                                        

Everything is stolen and nothing means anything                                              

Anymore 

 

Little whispers are great cries, explosions in the walls                                                      

We turn mirrors into secrets and the light reflects in our pockets                              

When we bend our knees, we are stifled in this bondage, these muddy waters                

We are ruptured and we can't heal 

 

My mind turns to sand when I taste your bitter salt                                                            

My body writhes and loops in coils, every time                                                                

My mind sings, I'll love you until the last spit and stone                                                

Woes wax and wane, but this cell remembers.
