and from each tiny caravelle

floating forgetfully along, with no need to be strong
We (21)________ our confessions long and when we pray we keep it short

I (22)__________ a thimble full of (23)________ and I'm not ever coming back

Oh, my God!

I do not (24)__________ we faithfully insist
while watching sink the heavy ship of everything we knew
If ever you come near I'll (25)________ up high a mirror
