G C
When our mouths are filled with uninvited tongues of others
G C
And the strays are pining for their unrequited mothers
G
Milk that sours is promptly spat
Em C
Light will fill our eyes like cats
G
And they shall enter from the back
With spears and scepters and squirming sacks
D
Scribs and tangles between their ears
C D C G C
Faceless scrumbled charcoal smears
G C
Through the coppice and the chaparral
G
The thickets thick with mold
D
The bracken and the brier
Em C
Catchweed into the fold
G C
When our mouths are filled with uninvited tongues of others
G C
And the strays are pining for their unrequited mothers
G
Milk that sours is promptly spat
Em C
Light will fill our eyes like cats
Em C
Light will fill our eyes like cats
G
Cataracts
