You build a nest of yellow yarn
You hope to God the yellowed yard
Is soft enough to break your fall
Should you fall, should you fall
Blood is let
And tears are kept
In hollow chests
While sweat's ignored
However spent
Our tears are sweat
Just kept secret
And strewn from pores
Keep your silence golden
And words important
You're only a handsome animal
Keep your silence golden
And words important
You're only a handsome animal
