symbolic engineer

you measure what was said on a small scale
the word seems cramped and painful on the page
there's no provision here for joy or rage

lakes rivers oceans fit within a pail
there is no other method we could gauge
you measure what was said on a small scale

truth and desire are both put up for sale
we are not told just how to pay each wage
but something must be placed inside the cage
you measure what was said on a small scale
