Tongue Tied

The knot so willing
Willing to be harpsichord,
and trampoline...I tied my fingers in
a bow, so
can't we stroll
down the valley
hilltops as we go...

Oh tongue never knows,
I speak without it as I go,
Anytime I prattle,
it's you
That's making me new
and you are keeping me all tied...

.

I'm pale opaque and luminesce,
I've given a name to all of my clothes,
I look at you with eager, eager eyes,
and I'm slowly breaking out of my,
mold
I look at me now
the mirror cracks in shatters,
so for the days end to come
I'm so tossed in millions
that I cry to stare off the way
no where in my mind is clutter now.

Oh tongue kept me down,
I speak as if I'm tied to barrels round
and up and down,
I've got no where waiting
You've got me so,
Tongue tied that
I am in a bow.
