A Step For Dance

pain struck me with a cry
silent pictures passing on by
i apologize for
spinning words like tops on the floor
does this mean that i'm insincere
i've wasted thoughts unlike a spendthrift

sincerely i have lied to you
shamelessly i've made my point of view
carelessly sown circles must restart
i've stood on things that drown in the dark

white faced my mime's quite an act
turned justified acrobat
i realize oh
a star spangled canopy overhead
bury me in infamy
amazingly you cradle me

oh to blast my soul
the casket never knows
a dead man craves a life
why'd the rose pick his advice
danced a step for love
sent the worm to feed the dove
grasped at air sucked dry the sky
princely robe tore at my thigh
pity one who is a boy
when he cries at no such joy
pattern patched this quilt alive
burned the stitchwork from my eyes

i do see you hear you love you
see me hear me love me Jesus
love me Jesus love you Jesus
feed me all the way
Jesus
