Messes Of Men by MewithoutYou

I do not exist, but faithfully insist
Sailing in our separate ships
and from (1)________ (2)________ caravelle
Tiring and trying there's unnecessary dying
like the horseshoe crab in its proper (3)______________ sheds its shell
Such distance from our friends
like a (4)______________ (5)____________ a lens,
made everything (6)________ wrong from (7)________________ we stood
and our (8)__________ blew away before we'd left the bay,
so half-blind we wrote these (9)__________ on sheets of salty wood

Caught me making (10)________ at the other boatman's wives,
and (11)__________ me laughing louder at the (12)__________ told by their daughters
I'd set my (13)____________ for land,
but you well understand
it takes a steady hand to navigate adulterous waters
The propeller's spinning blades held (14)________________________ with the waves
as there's mistakes I've made no rowing could outrun
The (15)__________ blowing on the mast like to say I've got no past
but I'm nonetheless the librarian and secretary's son
with tarnish on my brass and mildew on my glass,
I'd never want someone so (16)__________ as to want someone like me
but a few leagues off the shore, I bit a flashing lure
and I assure you, it was not what I expected it to be!
I still (17)__________ 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 still docked
Captain spotted napping (18)________ his first mate at the wheel,
floating (19)______________________ along, with no need to be strong
We (20)________ our confessions long and (21)________ we pray we keep it short

I drank a thimble full of (22)________ and I'm not (23)________ (24)____________ back

Oh, my God!

I do not exist we faithfully insist
while watching sink the heavy ship of everything we knew
If ever you come near I'll hold up high a mirror
Lord, I (25)__________ never (26)________ you (27)________________ as beautiful as You
