Dead Wait

DEAD WAIT You brave enough child You brave enough man Just because you will it Just because you can To pierce the everchanging rock To crack the patterned egg To peer into the center To witness then to beg Yes, he left your mother Said he disappeared Said I stole him from her Decidedly, flipped fear Then drip drip drip The trickle Drip drip drip the bleed Gashes gush from every side Every blatant need Vigilant servant lover Wishful injured steed No blessed nor glory's cover Just bog like tacky weed Snares at every crossing Babies become boss Grace shimmers only briefly Persecution circumvents the cross
