Messes Of Men by MewithoutYou

I do not exist, but faithfully insist
Sailing in our separate ships
and from each (1)________ caravelle
Tiring and trying there's (2)______________________ dying
like the horseshoe (3)________ in its (4)____________ seasons sheds its shell
Such (5)________________ from our friends
like a (6)______________ across a lens,
made everything (7)________ wrong from anywhere we stood
and our paper blew (8)________ (9)____________ we'd left the bay,
so half-blind we (10)__________ these songs on sheets of (11)__________ wood

Caught me (12)____________ eyes at the other boatman's wives,
and heard me laughing louder at the jokes told by their daughters
I'd set my course for land,
but you well understand
it takes a steady hand to (13)________________ adulterous waters
The propeller's spinning blades held acquaintance (14)________ the waves
as there's mistakes I've made no rowing (15)__________ outrun
The cloth blowing on the mast (16)________ to say I've got no past
but I'm nonetheless the (17)__________________ and secretary's son
with tarnish on my brass and mildew on my glass,
I'd never want someone so crass as to want someone like me
but a few leagues off the shore, I bit a flashing lure
and I (18)____________ you, it was not what I expected it to be!
I still taste its kiss, that dull hook in my lip
is a memory as useless as a rod without a reel
To an anchor ever-dropped, seasick yet still docked
Captain (19)______________ (20)______________ with his first (21)________ at the wheel,
floating forgetfully along, with no (22)________ to be strong
We keep our confessions long and when we pray we keep it short

I drank a thimble (23)________ of (24)________ and I'm not (25)________ coming back

Oh, my God!

I do not exist we faithfully insist
while watching sink the heavy ship of everything we knew
If (26)________ you come near I'll hold up high a mirror
Lord, I could (27)__________ show you anything as beautiful as You
