LYRICS:
poetry,
grows off trees,
air is a soundless song,
the ground communicates,
with aching echoes,
of what we did wrong…
and theres a feeling,
that lies beneathe our skin,
and there are burning ceilings,
just don’t let the ashes in,
and i couldn’t ask for more,
heaven is located behing a locked door,
if only we could break it down,
together we can break it down…
centerfolds,
of waterfalls,
and kinky karma sex,
and kingdoms,
of gender and races,
each one a reject…
potraits of screaming whispers,
and broken records,
of our stability,
ocean tides,
and babies cries,
come reach out with me,
come stand around,
all of us human clowns,
today’s a spectacle,
our arms are raised,
the lord is praised,
we’ll make a spectacle…
reckless and relentless,
we are puppets,
make a home,
to make us whole,
with puppet poetry…
