The earth and twigs sink under boot
The timber is sodden
No sparks will bring the pile to flame
Daylight has failed us
That structure, the sheets upon our figures
Won't keep the creep of cold out
Our bodies will not be enough
Forgive us
We aren't stuck, stricken with sickness
This is how we're supposed to be, trust me
This pine and nails
Can't belie our frailty
Off of the rails, we are fine
I've locked the doors, I
Swallowed the keys, so you can see
Believe me, please believe me
Now that nothing means anything
Forgive me
