lyrics

I play tightrope
Tentatively stepping along
The length of your shadow.

I don't like the path you tread,
But it's yours nonetheless.

Your four syllables lie languidly
On my tongue,
As inescapable as the last that we breathe.

If ever you need me I'm here still,
Trying to keep my footing.

My eyeballs are full to the brim,
I'm a mote of dust clinging static to your coat.
We're two crows on a crooked branch, plotting murder.
All the people down below will never see us
Coming, we'll rain fire on those deserters,
Splayed at all angles like a blunderbuss
