Inside Blue Eyes

She understood the sparrows
Though they didn't think in sin
She stood out in the parking lot
No idea where to begin
The dogs they howled like dying
And crawled under her skin
She tucked her ears inside her hands
And fled the pouring rain.

Religion is no saviour
When you're praying to a lie
Ask the Devil's favour
Alive and yet you die
She couldn't stand the message
Though it flowed in through her eyes
Cradled her head inside her hands
Sat on the floor and cried.
