Is it wrong to talk to myself even when there's nobody else?. I'm just checkin' out that I'm not gone under the water. Thrown on the beach like a seal ready for slaughter.
Vodka intimate, an affair with isolation in a Blackheath cell. Extinguishing the fires in a private hell. Provoking the heartache to renew the licence.
Have you ever met a lady, screaming angst potential?. Have you ever dreamed of romance, no matter how experimental?. Have you ever felt an alien drifting back into your hometown?.
Yeah!. Slow French kissing with the Dauphin's daughter. If I fall in love now I'll be floating in Seine. Plastered in Paris I've had an Eiffel. Gonna make my escape on the midnight train.
A spider wanders aimlessly within the warmth of a shadow. Not the regal creature of border caves. But the poor, misguided, directionless familiar. Of some obscure Scottish poet.
I am the assassin, with tongue forged from eloquence. I am the assassin, providing your nemesis. On the sacrificial altar to success, my friend. Unleash a stranger from a kiss, my friend.
Read some Kerouac and it put me on the tracks to burn a little brighter now. Something about roman candles fizzing out, shine a little light on me now.
You may not recall the moment that you asked me. But your invitation was clear. You'll pretend you've never met me but it's far too late. Now I'm here, yeah.
Huddled in the safety of a pseudo silk kimono. Wearing bracelets of smoke, naked of understanding. Nicotine smears, long, long dried tears, invisible tears.
