about
Here is a demo just for you!
lyrics
Saw Beatrice over my bed...
"Think of red ladies," is all she said.
It brought back a first memory to me,
aligned with the others,
sad little mothers to be,
of all that I wanted to see
when I was looking through me
And I'm up against the you and the I,
the when-I-said-I-wouldn't-but-tried's,
innocent associative ties.
I got high and I stared at the wall,
but great big disasters were all I saw.
Then Beatrice whispered again,
a last sublimation,
a mental creation to free
a traveller's drive from his need,
and send him with godspeed.
Now I'm up against the you and the I,
in between, and waiting on why.
In my stead, you'll just have to die.
So I'm gone to get a job now, you know I said I would.
She's a lot to run around with, you know? I thought I could.
Should I go and tell my friends now? I know, I know, I should.
But I've got to walk away before I'm sure there's something better
on the way...
