| She is there in psychadelic ribbons Different colors entwined with her hair She is so happy She is smiling O child, why are you smiling? There is nothing funny anymore Your always smiling Dogs were barking last night Dogs were scavenging for my sun bleached bones Our facial features highlighted by the sun Always maddening Keeping me awake Barking and howling at the full moon Like the pierceing of the war drum That is sounding in my head The pressure that is against my skull The neighborhood dogs are driving me insane And all I can see is her smiling face I wish I could die under the eyes of the nightt I wish that I could put my hand against her jaw line And then watch my fingers move past her ear Dissapearing into smooth dark hair I could solve everything if I could just gather the nerve I could kill you in your cheap fur coat And then give you to the dogs And with enough karosene I could erase the skin from your bones Or the scars from your body She could blur the last viable percent |
