Messes Of Men by MewithoutYou

I do not exist, but faithfully insist
Sailing in our separate ships
and from each tiny caravelle
Tiring and trying there's (1)______________________ dying
like the horseshoe crab in its proper seasons sheds its shell
Such (2)________________ from our friends
like a scratch across a lens,
made everything (3)________ wrong from anywhere we stood
and our (4)__________ blew away before we'd left the bay,
so half-blind we wrote these songs on sheets of (5)__________ wood

Caught me making eyes at the other boatman's wives,
and heard me laughing louder at the (6)__________ told by (7)__________ daughters
I'd set my course for land,
but you well understand

To an anchor ever-dropped, seasick yet still docked
Captain spotted napping with his first (20)________ at the wheel,
floating (21)______________________ along, with no need to be strong
We (22)________ our confessions long and when we pray we keep it short

I (23)__________ a thimble full of (24)________ and I'm not ever coming back

Oh, my God!

I do not exist we faithfully insist
while watching sink the heavy ship of (25)____________________ we knew
If ever you come near I'll hold up (26)________ a mirror
Lord, I could never show you anything as beautiful as You
