Dying Boy

Lyrics

Today a child was born From a womb of confusion And in a fit of unknowing will Was given to despair A knock on the door A skip of her heart In a fit of uneasiness Was hoisted in the air And seven days float on Written word becoming apt A hidden looking glass Begging you to go away Roll the tongue, another year Customary closing on This January is long enough It was too late yesterday Did I speak to soon? Caterpillar crawl down deep Stupid boy are you I know to take but not to keep The chrysalis has broken through In my stomach scratch a wall Dying boy are you Left alone to cry and crawl Withered boy are you Skin is thin and wanting leave A filthy boy are you Ever more than you perceive
