Tension Makes A Tangle Songtext / Lyric

As frail hinges

Pivot on a case's door

Commemorative

Souvenirs from places

Containers change

With each occasion



A cellophane encased

Display of paper

Certificate

To credit years of service

A tool of central enterprises

The early hope

For permanence

The words

The rings

Consistency

The social security

A miracle is high tragedy






Thought mistaken

For a memory

Clear the dust from

Smiles in boxes

Pass a patterned wall

Recall their voices



A local post

Will list your friends

In order of

Disappearance

The lawn scattered



Tins feed birds

A portion baked for

Absent guests

And the mass edition icon

God sent comfort

Your salvation

But who grants absolution

For sins that

Never were committed



Tension makes a tangle

Of each thought

Becomes an inconvenience

Sound as it never penetrates

As servile edges

Break and

Feint



Thought mistaken

For a memory

A dress length

Assassination

A fractured family tie

Another christening



Christening

Christening

Christening
