When Mute Tongues Can Speak Lyrics by Posies

When Mute Tongues Can Speak Lyrics

    When mute tongues can speak
    And relate their need
    I make fun of skins laying in a dark room
    In a piglet's eye
    If the dream had wings
    Then the nest of feathers could freeze without them

    I never knew how to fear correctly
    When we were seven we would hit directly
    By some misgiving that you dealt ineptly
    All was forgiven when you knelt to help me

    See the boy of smiles
    With the teardrop shape
    Shuddering and crying with the wind knocked from him
    And the kids just stare
    Is this guy for real
    Some mistakes are all too apparent

    It's nothing personal--just a lousy memory
    Dissected birds are my adopted family
    I pool myself until i see anemones
    All was forgiven when you knelt to help me

    In a can of boys
    Across a crowd of thorns
    Everyone is laughing all expensive painful
    Windbreaker is torn
    Friendly tree has scars
    Experience is necessary to be normal

    I never knew how to fear correctly
    When we were seven we would hit directly
    By some misgiving that you dealt ineptly
    All was forgiven when you knelt to help me

    It's me...
