Piratess

[Verse 1] Who wrote those lines on the wall? Let's retrace where they scrawled ancient characters It's 2:00 and your sister's slip, it falls And the afternoon crawls across the room and tackles her [Verse 2] I don't think that you would sink that ship that's only passing through Cause I don't believe that you might be a murderess But I saw inside each small, dark eye as it was turning blue All the strength inside to do just what the captain says and hang the rest [Verse 3] And moved by the rhyme in the psalm We agreed that it was wrong and to believe in it Ooh, swooned the wall all night long But a lie's a lie, no matter what guy's breath's in it [Verse 4] I don't know that I would go that far down some dark avenue With a whispering crew of shadows all protecting it But I saw inside each small white lie as it was turning true The ability to do all things expected of it [Verse 5] I don't think that you would sink that ship that's only passing through Cause I don't believe that you might be a piratess Did you hide inside each small white lie, before you turned it true The ability to do all things the captain says? [Verse 6] Oh murderess in the wilderness, with your victims all around you Their combined love forms a pool your knife's reflected in And now I'm ready, too, with my throat to you. On this mountain. By this moon And what I want the most to do is prove that I'm not like them
