song of the night

[thebrokenarrows]

Daddy please, hear this song that I sing
In your heart there's a spark that just screams
for a lover to bring
a child to your chest
Who would lay as you sleep,
and love all you have left
Like the boy you used to be,
long ago wrapped in sheets warm and wet.

Blister please, with those wings in your spine
Love to be with a brother of mine
How he'd love to find
Your tongue in his teeth
And struggle to find
secret songs that you keep
locked in boxes so tight,
sounding only at night as you sleep.

In my dreams you're alive and you're crying
As your mouth moves in mine, soft and sweet!
Rings of flowers 'round your eyes and I'll love you
for the rest of your life, when you're ready!

Brother see, we are one in the same
When you left with your head filled with flames
And you watched as your brains
fell out through your teeth
Push the pieces in place,
make your smile sweet to see!
Don't you take this away,
I'm still wanting my face on your cheek.

And when we break,
we'll wait for our miracle
God is a place where some holy spectacle lies
When we break
We'll wait for our miracle
God is a place you will wait for the rest of your life.

Two-headed boy,
she is all you could need.
She will feed you tomatoes
and radio wire
And retire you to sheets safe and clean...
But don't hate her when she gets up to leave
