Lay Low Sister Flo

a bat and ball
a certain way to stand tall
ignition within a conversation
pierced as the renegade blown together

appreciate the system,
walk away to me while you bleed
certain to be caught
from here to eternity back

safe in my chest you see
lift the soap so far
try avoiding the light on the car
look to the east...
