TB Comes to Silly Fort

from Landlords Dance by David F. Bello

/

lyrics

The streets reflect the candles in the windows of your father's victorian home. Inside, the smell of cigarettes and wine overpowers the filth. Because your voice is louder than any sound, it's too bad your throat bleeds more than my ears. Your egyptian eyes are focused on the crowd. I'm one of your fans, but I'm closer to you than the rest. Here's a handkerchief. Cover your sweet mouth. Your lungs are your gift, don't you dare ruin it. Tiny specks of red dot the cotton. A full year of marriage before I'm left alone. Sing, my precious sweet, before I'm left alone, one more honest note, before I'm left alone. We'll put perfume in your coffin to preserve you for eternity. Spilled on rocks above your grave and in the bottle next to me in the gutter.
