Untitled #3

lyrics

Goddamn, the Devil’s own wasted time
Goddamn, I’m not wasting mine
And, chopping through the garden vines,
I divine there’s nowhere but east to go
And nothing so entwined
As trouble and a tempted mind
Or the fates to which we were consigned
When love breached the rind

Jawbone breaks
On steely fruit
Knowing is sucked up through the root

Faithless fawn
With sour core
And sadness in store,
Knowing’s what your faithlessness is for
