I Reach Into Your Heart

Empty faces, tasteless drinks
A sermon of sorts, an offering
Dive bar strewn with ancient men
One turned and growled under his breath

"Congratulations, you're diseased
Your flesh, impermanent and weak
To die is not to be condemned
Your body won't remember it"

I reach into your heart
To try and start it over
It's gonna tear you apart
Before I do

Blue neon streams across my eyes
Indigo from the floorboards rise
They call him saint, though I'm not sure why
Anoint thee stains of humankind
