Mercy Cage Rend (sutured)
4:30 am, I can't sleep again
Listening to Iggy's 'Idiot' on the stereo
I don't mind
Maybe I'm insincere
Maybe I'm wrong footed in the gloom
This shop-worn angel on the wrong side of the room
And the voices alluding to human frailty
Echo through the wall
Maybe I don't need it anyway
After all this time
I don't mind
Give me justification
Validate my one in ten
As we dance around and around and around and around this
Again and again and again...
And someone told me once
'We could be heroes'
[I remember]
Just for one day
Wash it all away
Maybe next time I'll be sure
It's ok
I don't mind
This is a prayer
Don't ever let me stop...
