Lay Down Your Arrows.....

Pretty Shiela lay down your arrows your thumbs are greener your tulips your fushia you look pale lay down your arrows your golden sheild i'm wondering i'm listless i'm searching and i imagined what it would be like that forbidden kiss like blood do i want it because it's forbidden and what if it's the wrong moment like a coffee stain and someone is watching it feels like claws? Shiela lay down your arrows it's OK tonight lay down the Quilts are made of hay and the ponies are hiding there are no weapons just many arrows listless and wandering and looking for lost blood stolen and do i want this because it's forbidden like an angel wrapped around a cigar do i need this because i can't have it do i need this envious memory like pale Snow White and her porcelin skin like a second chance for a 7 year old a baby life Shela there's no more wars between your veins just the midnight sun waiting to be born and do i need blood because it's forbidden words like an angel wrapped around a cigar.......
