Gilded lips tell lily lies
Of amber truths and silver eyes
I see their whispers wink and sigh
And slink, I think, but who am I to
Speak between these teeth of tin
To dance upon these boots of skin
I dream a dream of life within
That melts the moment it is seen
Gilded lips tell lily lies
Of candied truths and lazy eyes
I speak of what I see inside
Beneath the skin and words they hide their
Gentle wings of brittle bone
Their fragile shards of shattered stone
Reveal the truth of a truth unknown
That melts the moment it is born
My gilded lips they tell no lies
They speak no words, but in my eyes
There hides a secret plain as day
So simple that no words will say
My gilded lips tell only lies
Fragmented truths dressed in disguise
But listen close, and you will hear
The bell is ringing loud and clear
