it’s late and it’s time
to replace everything
i’ve asked you for money
but you never answer
i keep entering the sanctuary
and i keep finding emptiness
i’ll settle for any old blessing
tell me which words to use
maybe it’s just me
maybe that makes me a fool
maybe i’ll just keep waiting
here where it’s still
full of longing
where everything has faded
like ghosts, like friendships
new commandments
like the constant grind
of bone crushing bone
the spaces filled with dust
my feet need washing
the table needs to be set
your ring waits to be kissed
tomorrow is a new day
they also said that about today
home is so far away
i have so many calls to return
gather all my things
leave the door unlocked
