pray to the simple machines |
|
that do not rely on belief |
|
the softness of steam and of gears |
|
their energy is surely pure |
|
the kindness of engines is not in you |
|
claire you do it perfectly |
|
the water is all on it's own |
|
it goes where it wants to go |
|
the telephone can't dry it up |
|
and sleeplessness won't make it slow |
|
if opposites are the best chance of hope |
|
claire you do it perfectly |
|
the line straight to defeat is based upon belief |
|
that's how we are sustained |
|
on pretty girls make graves |
|
sweetly you punctuate weakness |
|
claire you do it perfectly |
|
the highway it helps to forget |
|
the straightness it doesn't betray |
|
it lies on in where it lies |
|
it's courtesy is it exists |
|
that's how we are sustained |
|
on pretty girls make graves |
|
the line straight to defeat is based upon belief |
|
confirmed and catalogued |
|
your lies |
|
claire you do it perfectly |
