Unshared Beliefs

from Tonight's Whispering by Gondoliers

lyrics

Wash your hands and count to 20
Don't take other people's shit
Don't just follow the $ but
Keep a close eye on where it's all been hidden
There's always room for one more
Always the chance we were wrong before
When we look at ourselves in photos
We are losing our souls for sure
We are parakeets fighting with mirrors
Fish biting glass as feet come nearer
Our disintegration is our charm
We are not meant to last through this much harm
Now there are salts to huff
And so much less pain to tough out
When things got too rough
There are safe words that we can call out
When our jaws come unhinged
It opens the door to our inards
And the demons that were hanging about
Will be free to go out on the town
We can paint our cell walls any color we please
And build all the machines we dreamed would come to be
We need only ignore the detractors
Make love to the screen
Not just worship the actors
Share all the dreams that keep us from sleeping
Delve deep into our unshared beliefs
