Getting Where Water Cannot

Game match set and synchronise
Then part it, this hand set in turpentine
Imitate and angled to
Suffocate this indigence
Inherited from mouth to mouth sore
Kept clean and comfortable

Consequence
Never let
Me fall down
There's every
Chance I won't
Get back up

Like holding a mirror to the action
I kill and die
All dos and don'ts equals are opposites
I smile and cry

Fall backwards in space and time
I cower in corners minding mine
Get where water cannot
If you could use the space to grow now
You've no gleam or shine
So worn the rigour of a champion
Now you're faded with time

When giving birth makes you a murderer
And your love a crime
Are we but walking contradictions
While ever this ring still binds
