Rodent

Level edge
Backs against the ledge
No knives
The stone hard eyes
Without the longing
Or fear that it would disappear
They cling on, nurturing
Never-ending
Obsessions on the table
Lines needed
Walls cover tips the balance
Don’t touch me
Wiped out
Cornering
Mouth the word money
Mouth the word money
Mouth the word money
Going to make some money
In god I will trust
Death behold persuasion
Won’t bust me up
Hey ho, what you doing you here?
Head shake
Handshake
Out to get out of the way
From corrosion
Pushes closer to the edge
Wire not connected
Peeling back
Plastic wrap
Tinted green
And all illusion
And all
Existing
Caught up crossfire
Trading tall tales
Way to go man
where do you fail
What’s that mean?
Back and forth
Side by side
Loose knot weave
Keep it up
Altogether
Or whatever that means
Passing underneath
The trespass
Don’t get too close
Don’t get too close
Mouth the word your money
Mouth the word your money
If I fade I may
And I want to get away
All that I do
Is pray
That you will be there too
If this is trying
To deceive some minds
What the hell have you got to say?
Under the surface lies
I know the secret
Altogether
Altogether
The quiet minds
Looking for their treats
(Heart?)
Time to stop
Time to stop
Time to stop
Money
Mouth the word money
Mouth the word money
Mouth the word money
Better build a better mouse trap
