Recant Chant

Reverb proverb
Counting syllables
Metered lines
Measured words
Golden girl
Perfectly
Perfect words
Oh, but sometimes
My mouth steps
Ahead of my mind
Leaving every
Thought behind

Recant chant
Cleaning up
Won't make the stain
Go away
Whining about
Being alone
Like a
Plugged in drone
Point out my mistakes
I'll pull you through the rakes

Recant chant
Can't
No it can't
Take it away
Once it's spoken
Words not thought out
Can leave a heart stabbed
Bleeding and broken

So I'll do my damnedest
To bury my shitty epitaphs
But as you can plainly see
I've got my work
Cut out for me
