lyrics

you are the most resolute
of rubber cement
the most saccharine of model glue
that keeps the skull and crossbones
flying over this model tattered excuse
you are the architect
of steady hand
and blueprints drafted true
that keeps the mosaic tessellated
from mere refuse

I belie the telltale signs
the lost design of exhausted mines
the perforated lines
unstitched time and broken twine
but you cauterize and refine
like sweetest crime from the inside
you defy this broken sigh
emulsified in your eyes

long division, the remainders
have never quite coerced you
to slide the mirror towards the axis
and hide the split rail from view
you brave blown patches
elastic scratches and the tectonic tolls
you jump the rail
to come to my defense
and jump behind the damage controls
with the beauty of starfish who explode
yet manage to save face
you're infinitely capable
with staples, paperclips
gauze and grace

I belie the telltale signs
the lost design of exhausted mines
the perforated lines
unstitched time and broken twine
but you cauterize and refine
like sweetest crime from the inside
you defy this broken sigh
emulsified in your eyes
