if i got a quiet mouth then you should hear my loud mind
like a quick mouse tip-toeing through land mines, shhhh
my head is a battlefield that you will never see, deep sigh
i give you the emotion with my eyes and my hearts regard
but all you ever get is a stupid face that wont talk, cry or laugh
it makes you melt, boil and burn. you're stuck in our favourite pan
on my hot element, you disappear in silver smoke whisps and
all you leave behind is the black spot to remind me
death comes to emotion, connections, moments just as easily
as it reaps life from the ground in which it grew.
if i got a quiet mouth, then you should look behind those teeth
and hear me roaring on the inside. Search for the signs of life
they flicker behind my eyes and skin and are vibrant and, dim.
blurry crystals cross fade into clouds of purple and green and brightness.
i just dont want to move my face for you. not yet. not until im desperate.
