Loops

The room is full of umbrellas
That are floating upside down
Huddled close, and full of rain
You crouch and start to crawl
To look for a safe place
To get sick

Tell me, are you being honest
I would never lie to you

Chewing words like gum
That has become cartilage
On a median strip
Selling flowers with no scent
You are building your brand
You are splitting the difference
You are making demands
You are begging forgiveness
With your fingers dug into the cliff

Tell me, are you being honest
Because I would never lie to you
Tell me, are you being honest
Because they deserve the truth from you
Eddie, are you being honest
Because I would never lie to you
