Blessed Persistence

I changed my mind and looked no better

Hard of heart, blind, blind to his higher art

My frustration, my anger in disguise I slip under

I slip under quiet, he spots me anyhow

Chalk up my name, you burn my bridges for me

To a dry and clackin' stalk, I swallow stone

They do not recognize inside with them

The locust has no king

Just noise and hard language

They talk me over but I fade slower on fever

Blessed persistence right under my skin

Blessed persistence

Blessed persistence right under my skin

You burn my bridges for me

To a dry and clackin' stalk

Blessed persistence

Nothing comes to mind

Nothing comes to mind

Nothing comes to mind

Nothing comes to mind

Hey chalk up my name

Right under your skin

To a dry and clackin' stalk

Nothing comes

Nothing comes to mind

Nothing comes

Nothing comes to mind

Nothing comes to mind
