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 unnecessary dying
like the horseshoe crab in its proper seasons sheds its shell
Such distance from our friends
like a (1)______________ across a lens,
made everything look wrong (2)________ anywhere we stood
and our (3)__________ blew away before we'd (4)________ the bay,
so half-blind we (5)__________ these songs on sheets of salty wood

Caught me (6)____________ eyes at the other boatman's wives,
and heard me laughing (7)____________ at the jokes told by their daughters
I'd set my (8)____________ for land,
but you (9)________ understand
it takes a (10)____________ hand to navigate (11)____________________ waters
The propeller's spinning blades held acquaintance (12)________ the waves
as there's mistakes I've made no rowing could outrun
The cloth blowing on the mast like to say I've got no past
but I'm nonetheless the librarian and secretary's son
with (13)______________ on my brass and (14)____________ on my glass,
I'd never want someone so crass as to want someone (15)________ me
but a few leagues off the shore, I bit a flashing lure
and I (16)____________ you, it was not what I expected it to be!
I (17)__________ taste its kiss, that dull hook in my lip
is a memory as useless as a rod without a reel
To an anchor ever-dropped, seasick yet (18)__________ docked
Captain spotted napping with his (19)__________ mate at the wheel,
floating forgetfully along, (20)________ no need to be strong
We keep our (21)______________________ (22)________ and (23)________ we pray we keep it short

I drank a thimble full of fire and I'm not (24)________ (25)____________ back

Oh, my God!

I do not exist we faithfully insist
while watching (26)________ the (27)__________ ship of (28)____________________ we knew
If ever you come near I'll (29)________ up high a mirror
Lord, I could never show you anything as beautiful as You
