The Scalpel and the Lathe

Been working on something
With a scalpel and a lathe.
One carves out the nights,
The other smooths the way.

Been working on something
With a scalpel and a lathe.
One gouges at my past.
The other makes mistakes.

Been working on something
With a scalpel and a lathe.
One takes all these sins and
The other takes my faith.

Been working on something
With a scalpel and a lathe.
A boat so I can reach you and
An anchor for lost days.
