Jaws Of Life

Hold me like a child
In your warm warm arms
Whisper parables
Keep me safe from harm
Oh my sagging skin
Oh my burning sky
I will close my eyes
I will close my eyes

There was laughter once
There were pretty songs
Pull the metal shards
Thin my clotted blood
Oh my rotted skin
Oh my burning sky
I will close my eyes
I will close my eyes

Oh the jaws of life
Oh the jaws of life
Oh the jaws of life
