Emotional Moses

I drink the poison that is sweet

My hand slips through the cracks

A tainted love

For all above

The slippery nights have fallen...

Oh debonair priest, what have we done?

Emotional buildings seem to fall

For I have slaved over so many tears

Behold the man in the shadow

Oh secret love,

Have you danced this way before?

True hearts remain unheard

This sacred beauty you demand

Who is this savior in a cup?

Oh roses by roses

For there are millions of roses

Led astray in the dark

By some lonesome stranger;

And this lonesome stranger

Climbs on the walls

Where shadows grow distant

And clouds begin to roam

And sacred flowers presume to explode

And the roses speak

In sacred tongues

How can a book be buried in the night?

In stony ground, my heart does leap

I beg for the flowers some more

For I am a child

And you are an emotional love

Where have you gone, Moses?

Where have you gone

In the midst of a dream?

For I am excited for you

The spirit of a cat

Has licked its wounds

And the emotional trauma

Has fallen upon these ears,

For these ears of mine have heard you scream

I run, and I have fallen

Oh where have my darling roses gone?

For the tragedy seeks help

I wonder, oh darling priest,

Well how do you speak?

For the river of love does flow

Yet this flailing mystery does not exist...

It's crazy how this book of confessions

Was buried by night.
