Babychain

wide eyes on my passenger side tonight we’ll take a ride one hand on the wheel the other on your knee i take control and drive us deep through darkened highway and quiet streets we go forever we die together have you ever felt god lied to you even though you know it isn’t true i thought i heard him whisper was the voice i heard my own or worse around my neck this babychain its tiny links spell out your name and it never comes off it is who i am it is part of me it is my body out there somewhere you wear one too a golden truth when i die again let it rest with me above the ouroboros my only peace may it never break may it give us strength let it be the light let it keep us safe in distant spirit i feel it shake feel it rattle chains on heaven’s mighty gate let us in we are weak and spent held together by love’s red thread the greatest love the world has known fed into the fire mouth of the unknown swallow us whole our chain on your breath give us the blessing that this earth could not afford
