All skin crawls
And scales shift
Strychnine words
On my finger tips
So let me hide in the tall grass
Conversing with crickets
Giving them hiccups
Yeah, that's the power I crave
To manipulate neglect
Like a pirate of emotion
Taking a drag while dragging my take
Behind, find me, find beauty
You and me, sorry for acting rudely
I didn't, but I will
Words no longer carry weight
And that makes my scales shift
