about

In memory of Bartholomew Smith

lyrics

'All the "been there" and "done thats" are cutting my throat.'
Well I wouldn't want to kiss it back together again,
I'm no king nor have I ever been any King's man.
Oh but somewhere I know this is a place I've never been before--
no dismal apartment--we moved out of our apartments long ago.
We started packing when we met but left all of our boxes behind
with the first kiss.
Now I'm awake but I still know sleep wouldn't really hurt this.
Its been a fucked up day, my family dog died and now my family is buried along with it
under a tree in a field with a birdhouse hanging over from a limb
but its hardly a memory, its just something that I woke up with.
Its just a knot in my necktie, the shoo in my shoo fly, the black of my black eye.
I'm not so scared of the future anymore, they say it ain't always fair
but I think it tends to be a pretty even score.
I never really believed that life starts on your birthday because from all that I've seen, not even death stops at the grave.
Where have you been when I was looking for you?
And now you're here and I'm not so sure its something I could do.
