Mouthful of Wasps

A list of things that should be said

Now weighs a forest on your tongue

And all your virtues safely kept

In Vaseline, have slipped bygone

Put it on, the vast choir sings

Let the broncos run wild again

Wipe it off, the purgatory grin

'Cause it's all too convincing

Show me that it's easy

Say that you're in need of me

Don't talk of the costs with a mouthful of wasps

Time is up, so let them all fly

Up in the sky

Yes, I was taught among your kind

By drilling tunnels towards the core

In through the multi-detailed mind

Where rich and simple is at war

Put it on, the vast choir sings

Let the broncos run wild again

Wipe it off, the diabolic grin

'Cause it's so contrived and it frightens me

Show me that you're easy

Say that you believe in me

Don't act out your frost with a mouthful of wasps

Time is up, so let 'em all fly

Up in the sky

Behind those weary eyes

Some broken story hides

I need to know and you have to show

Before it strikes its roots and strangles

Everything
