burn brighter
burn baby burn
its a suicide like an orgasm
leavin our souls jaded and old...
and on these cliffs where we lived and died
strange rituals were performed
in the southern reaches of your skull
cracks in the wall reveal the sky
stretched taut and shivering...
something seeks entrance to your mind
until that shadow covers everything in your life...
its just that soul sickening hunger
roaring glorious and all consuming
like the fire in your eyes
warming my feeble heart...
and in the wind i hear your song
pale desperation
blue weirding
and novembers burning at dusk........

Will o' Wisp

the wind is blowing
and the rain is painting the streets with dragonflies
the gutters are gurgling
and the lamps are dancing in the wind like fireflies
and your eyelight is glimmering in the dark
as your teeth go scattering
will o wisp
o will o wisp
fluttering incandescent
like this night sky's kiss...
so let me drown
in twilight sadness
like moss and stone
but what is it
that's murmuring to me
as you're so gently smiling?
well you know
this is our last dance
shouting out
this indigo night
will o wisp
o will o wisp
fluttering incandescent
like this night sky's kiss...

Your Foggy Nights

well i see you pawned your sixguns and your tattered skies
for a quiet life by the seaside
and yet your ghost roams the land,
midnight found her by my bedside
and at my feet
she lay your ocean drives
and your winter skies
your foggy nights
and your soul that was saved
by rock and roll
all your schoolgirl dreams
of a golden heart
and your moon
setting now
into the deep.......
what shall i do
with these, your treasures?
o what shall i do
with these your treasure?
what shall i do?
what shall i do?
o what shall i do
with these, your treasures.....?

Starstrewn and Tattered
04:46

will the air always shimmer so?
and will the night always be
starstrewn and tattered?
and when lady death
finally lays her sacred kiss
upon my lips
shall i carouse those rocky shores
forevermore?
and will i find you there
old friend?
amongst the silent stars
at the waters edge
as the pelicans glide overhead?
and will it be forever night?
or shall november sunshine
find us there?
and shall we drift forevermore
upon these starkindled seas?
in the belly of this great ghostly galleon
to find ourselves swaying
amongst the lanterns and drunken saints
oncemore......
