Tuna in the Brine

I fondle keys to my heart when everyone’s heart

Seems so calm

And you found the lock

To my dorm and opened the door to my trust

Fund my vestry

The light in my darkest hour is fear

Denies me of anything good so

Don’t lose your heart you’ll need it

You’ll have to take another pill and tell another lie

And lie amongst your lies like tuna in the brine.

Take everything that you’re not and don’t be so

Scared to tamper (temper) with (temper) “tampered with” evidence (tamper)

Cause you’ll come along for the sun if you come at all

To lose your heart you’ll have to take, take and take.

Painting a lie seeing the colors but you seem

Closer to everything

Closer now than we ever have been

We’re closer now than we ever should (we) be

Closer now than we’ve ever been before

Closer to everything

Busking for change and changing everything

Feeble fables aren’t changing many things

It’s my time to shine like a tuna in the brine

For my pregnant paws aren’t changing anything

To all of the animals who keep sipping the sweat

From my back,

You’re making me ill

And

I can’t get enough

So take another pill and tell another lie

And lie amongst your lies like tuna in the brine.
