"The Indivisible"

Below the silent strolling clouds
Whisper words that unify unconditional feelings and calming thoughts
Except we missed all of the hooks
Titanic traitors on the cusp of finding witchcraft for hours missing from the clocks
Flickering eyes, dilated dreams, dashing dials and subtleties
Keep confessing you’ll concede to imperfect tense
Write all the warmth into the snow
Have your hands ready to glow
In the harbours of charmers and their godforsaken dens

Although our generosity extends, the clever girls are sent to dwell
In our notes and names we’re the indivisible

Allowed to plaster plans of hope on the promises that we’d cope
Teach us to drop our dreams for simply getting paid
Why must your mind brag for the bleak
Tempting fate and then defeat
The incandescent are deceased, sucked into the ground in vain

Although our generosity extends, the clever girls are sent to dwell
In our notes and names we’re the indivisible

You can’t ruin anything that isn’t there in life or lovers arms
Crying ink instead of tears, help me heal your suffering spells
Defiance that didn’t care, left forgotten in the sand, crying ink instead of tears

Although our generosity extends i’ve invented all I can
And all the screams I couldn’t save forever forces me to dwell
When all is said and done they’ll declare a case of open hearted fun
And we’ll wake from tommorow no longer as invincible
