Getting Where Water Cannot

Game match set and synchronise 
then part it this hand set in turpentine 
imitate and angled to
suffocate this indignance inherited 
from mouth to mouth sore 
kept clean and comfortable 

consequence
never let me fall down
there's every 

chance i wont
get back up 

like holding a mirror to the action
i kill and die
all dos and don'ts equals are opposites
i smile and cry

fall backwards in space and time
i cower in corners minding mine
get where water cannot

consequence
never let me fall down
there's every 

chance i wont
get back up 

if you could use the space to grow now
you've no gleam or shine
so worn the rigour of a champion 
now your faded with time 
when giving birth makes you a murderer 
and your love a crime 
are we but walking contradictions 
while ever this ring still binds
