My Florentine Abattoire
03:17
|

What is so rare as a rose in November
A bloom of blood, a bruise bright and tender
Outlasting us, leaves, sun, decaying
The flower’s fist, defiant and shaking
My Florentine abattoir
No one escapes without a scar
Take all the notes from what I remember
Separate the thoughts, divide and dismember
Otherwise I bought what you sold me
Those were your words and I believed what you told me
My Florentine abattoir
No one escapes without a scar
When subterfuge is torn apart
The will is lost to carry on

Summer Seance
03:00
|
|||
I can watch your dreams while you’re sleeping
I cannot believe what you’re seeing
When you’re falling I’ll be there to catch you
Nobody so lit could ever match you
You left me with the vague idea
A puzzle always incomplete
A different way to say goodbye
An alibi most bittersweet
Sunlit summer seance in a sauna
Tiny trailers trapped in Tijuana
Body bags and bed bugs swing a seesaw
Diner dogs a downer power tea cup
The future is a lost folio
Instructions to the lowest leg
Marketing a lonely locket
A silent peacock spreading string

The Broken Hearted Toy
03:59
|

More dead than alive
On the upper east side
The shadows get too dark
For a walk in the park
They’re all black and white
No color in sight
She goes out of print
And so they sailed away
I am the broken hearted toy
The one you can no longer enjoy
Dust off the cobwebs when you’re bored
Turn out the light where I am stored
The artist and the art
The spirit and the heart
Edith and the bear
The lonely doll is Dare
The world is far too much
Too much with us
Sea shells on her eyes
The dolls come to life
I am the broken hearted toy
The one you can no longer enjoy
Dust off the cobwebs when you’re bored
Turn out the light where I am stored

Anything
03:04
|
|||
Anything
Anything for you
Out of the blue
And too good to be true
There’s no promise
If it’s dishonest
A flow of lies
Were just stories to glamorize
After happiness
There’s emptiness
Hollow inside
A chamber where a heart once lived and died
Born to run
Off the track
Ten to one
You were never coming back
I couldn’t care
Any less
Regarding sins
You refuse to confess
After happiness
There’s emptiness
Hollow inside
A chamber where a heart once lived and died

It wouldn’t too hard to fake it
Pretending to make it
A slick and easy line to get it
And never regret it
Afraid of what we want
You are who you haunt
Trade your breathless tale
This one’s not for sale
The willingness to shade a shadow
Erased and falsetto
The plot of love was poorly acted
But your exit was perfected
Opinions on a night with Jasmine
My starlit companion
Diamond dust you wear like fashion
She speaks, yet she says nothing.
Afraid of what we want
You are who you haunt
Trade your breathless tale
This one’s not for sale

Rose And Cakes
04:30
|
|||
Left like a perfume
In waiting rooms
Dolls in a pawn shop
Stare out the window
I had a moment
You had a spell
We have a secret
No one can tell
Crates for the diamonds
Handbags for the pearls
Flutes full of champagne
Confessions full of girls
Exclusive invitations
I threw away last year
Golden opportunities
Avoided out of fear
Hide in the castle
Rise with the moon
Try on this makeup
Make mirrors swoon
Daisies from Heaven
Praline from Hell
Give me the gooseflesh
Steal what you sell
Crates for the diamonds
Roses witness wisdom
Cakes can mask mistakes
A craving you so long for
But can’t reciprocate

A Ghost In The Daylight
04:06
|
|||
You barely remember
I rarely forget
Some live in the moment
Some live with regret
Afraid of the future
And whatever comes next
Thoughts come out in the torment
You would never expect
She was a ghost in the daylight
A vision in the shade
The crack in the hourglass
Where the memory starts to fade
The spark from the candle
Set this city ablaze
An angel with a Devil’s wings
Who appears at the end of days
Heavy with sickness
Condemned to distress
A heartless endeavor
We failed to address
Springtime was frigid
Summer was cold
Flowers froze rigid
August it snowed
She was a ghost in the daylight
A vision in the shade
The crack in the hourglass
Where the memory starts to fade
The spark from the candle
Set this city ablaze
An angel with a Devil’s wings
Who appears at the end of days

So I cried and wailed and prayed
You would turn to fly and fail
Now I wonder why you’re here
Keep me on the cross
Love has let itself be seen
I will suffer out of love
Grace is making graves from stolen stones
Who cares no lock on this gate
All the spirits wait for the
Heart shaped tears of Saint Veronica
There’s a reason we whisper here
Heard the sirens Christmas Eve
Take the scarf now when you leave
Grace is making graves from stolen stones
Who cares no lock on this gate
All the spirits wait for the
Heart shaped tears of Saint Veronica
