Crystal Courage

Reading your fortune in your bowl of alphabet soup. Conversations on soul versus self, become redundant for the thousandth time you've lived your life The truth is transparent But not incredibly clear You believe it's courage But it's just crystalline fear Mercury, in retrospect, didn't perceive my dream Turn the light off, when you leave It doesn't matter if it fits right, only if you buy it Deals don't come from down inside your heart, they're on sale for hire Where's the local fear merchant, I'd like to make an appointment To teach him a couple words that aren't found inside the Bible Anarchy ain't just belief in nothing anymore God is in the details of the ranks of who is slaughtered To my good friend Charlie Flynn, who I don't even know, You believed in me so I will miss you more than most.
