Текст 10,000 Maniacs — Tension Make a Tangle

As frail hinges
Pivot on a case’s door
Commemorative
Souvenirs from places
Containers change
With each occasion

A cellophane encased
Display of paper
Certificate
To credit years of service

A tool of central enterprises
The early hope
For permanence
The words
The rings

Consistency
The social security
A miracle is high tragedy
Thought mistaken
For a memory

Clear the dust from
Smiles in boxes
Pass a patterned wall
Recall their voices
A local post

Will list your friends
In order of
Disappearance
The lawn scattered
Tins feed birds

A portion baked for
Absent guests
And the mass edition icon
God sent comfort
Your salvation
But who grants absolution
For sins that

Never were committed
Tension makes a tangle
Of each thought
Becomes an inconvenience
Sound as it never penetrates
As servile edges

Break and
Feint
Thought mistaken
For a memory
A dress length
Assassination

A fractured family tie
Another christening
Christening
Christening
Christening
