Listen to An Honest Mistake by The Bravery

Salvation
.
Rain sodden timber
(Rain sodden timber)
Trodden down
Splintered
(Trodden down
Splintered)
One time free thinker
(One time free thinker)
Now tongue tied and blinkered
(Tongue tied and blinkered)
Sinking in quicksand
(Sinking in quicksand)
Too weak to free kickstand
(Too weak to free kickstand)
Withstand the bleak scene of midwinter
.
(Salvation)
Felled akin to Lazarus
Thin skin cadaverous
Wincing with pain
Postulation unglamorous
(Salvation)
.
Amorous eyes
Deprived authentification
Undermined
Declined of sympathetic vibration
Apathetic rhetoric
Effectively dissuasion
To remaining
Same way facing
Neath unchanging gaze of raven
.
Brazen scars
Remarked of ancient psalm
Alike to palms of martyr
Rose red river
Giver of the grace enticing
Charmed stigmata
Forefathers before
Adored for pre-warning hereafter
Therefore stalling on freefalling rafter
Nevermore
Lending seasons
Well presented reasons
To endeavour for
.
I feel at peace on this day
(Salvation)
Some way released from dismay
(Salvation)
Reveal to each the same
As plain and honest as day
.
Teardrops in lockets
Pocket keepsakes
When our knees shake
These days
It’s a deep maze
To the place where sacred sheep graze
Need not heave a briefcase
Through remains of changeless weekdays
For we only cry
To buy the time
To find and prime unique shape
.
Taste the rain
Retrace each pain
Relace the thread of bled veins
Fame the treadway
Through the dead space
Whereby angels play
And demons sway
The same way facing
All embracing
Sighted
Neath unchanging gaze of raven
(Salvation)
.
