The timid voice shrill and breathless
hesitant, unless to wake the beasts that hide in

Mother saviour, don’t forsake

Break down* Blood, hair, teeth and nails x2

-Wax-
Intro - 4 bars
Verse *Artefacts - Teeth, hair and nails
Locked away in a lovers box of secrets
To build a dam
To wall in the tides, of languid and wallowing sorrow.
Inst.
Pre chorus* A mask of fragments
Held by spittle, blood and denial
A greater memory to shine through
And obscure the truth of the hate
All, once knew.
Chorus* And bound in wax
Craven image was formed
All that befell, is ignored
Denied,
Hidden beneath
a crooked smile
of broken teeth, hair and nails
Verse 2 *Mucus smeared, to stave off the smell
Hollow eyes frame a broken smile
Memory, artificial lines to hide the tale
A crooked smile, a secret vale.
Inst.
Pre chorus* A mask of fragments
Held by spittle, blood and denial
A greater, memory to shine through
And obscure the truth of the hate
All, once knew.

Denied,
Hidden beneath
a crooked smile
of broken teeth, hair and nails

Solace
Disaffect, cut the ties
Verse 1. Broken bonds, would bind hands tight,
to innate tasks, bend to your labours.
Blood bonds, dilute - dilute!
Depress post natal instinct - renounce this burden.
Chorus a. Cognitively in-debt progeny by callous, resentment
Oh callow youth, how a shadow of misconception has,
cast upon the child, cast upon the child.
Verse 2. Broke the bonds. To trust, in open arms.
Expectant eyes, demand warmth, Oh wouldst thou be the saviour!
(stabs) Lost to a sea, uncertainty haunts development
Definition lacks direction, without example.
Chorus (main) Intimacy, substitute, for comfort. Come together in the waves at dawn.
Beat Down. Identify - experimentation in lifestyle.
Chorus.
Bridge. Promiscuity defines not, left unfulfilled X2.
Left unfulfilled X4

Companionship at a cost.
Verse 1 Repression, subjectivity, dictates which side of the line, decency lies.
Most precious gift, sanctity, part of the self.
HELD BACK, HELD BACK, wither the flower, desecrate.
Chorus. With certainty, have not, the stomach nor the mind, to condone this choice.
Profession - disassociate and compromise, self respect.
Verse 2 A bleak path, unhappy circumstance, the hardest of times.

Stripped of, innocence - the vultures gilded tongue.
Break - Full of promise, FULL OF HOPE.
Chorus 2. (as 1st)
Bridge. - She’s just a child! X4
Beat Down. Disassociate and compromise, YOUR SELF RESPECT.
Chorus 3 With certainty, have not, the stomach nor the mind, to condone this choice.
