Thoughts

Well nighttime passes, but the dark remains
and I was feelin’ like a little child, but I am loathe to place blame
on that lioness-esque woman, who will go here unnamed
she was looking in me for a lion, when she found it so tame

On that erstwhile May morning, I took the 6 downtown to Spring
and I was writing something elegiac, that I never learned to sing
but I think that it was this song, just four years premature
and I remember crossing out the line - “all is fair in love and war”

Well if all is fair in love and war
then I don’t know what we’re fighting for

Cuz my baby she’s a real peach
even when the night come crashin’ down
real peach
and the nighttime rolls away, alright
and we’re comin’ back to the demon-killing work of love
(my god)

Well nighttime passes and the dark retreats
I hand it over to my upper angel who visits me in sleep
we’re in the field beyond the right and wrong and the fallacy of form
you can call it what you wanna call it, I just say “all is fair in love and war”

Well if all is fair in love and war
then I don’t know what we are fighting for
So if we don’t care to fight no more
let’s go upstairs and let’s shut the door

Cuz my baby she’s a real peach
even when the night come crashin’ down
real peach
and the nighttime rolls away, alright
and we’re comin’ back to the demon-killing work of love
(my god) illuminate

The Rains

Real Peach

She sings of apple trees and blossoms
and she called me from Dallas Love Field
as a winter storm warning went on taunting me
When we met we were two bright-eyed alcoholics
in the springtime in the Year of Our Lord
as we glanced the gilded edges of our identities 

But ever the wayof the lover's lot
that black as the kettle's the hypocrite pot
often, then more, more often than not

c'mere baby, in the darkening hour
riding our bikes to the dive bar at the edge of town
was it some shrill and false persona that was leading me round?
well my right hand offended me but my left hand was waving free
till it knocked me out
did it?

to be honest babe,I never saw you coming, no
though I did believe the world to be a starry dome(did it did it did it I) so maybe we take the longer way
to a cosmic home, a place to stay
spinning lanterns in a field until the end of days

c'mere baby, in the darkening hour
riding our bikes to the dive bar at the edge of town
was it some shrill and false persona that was leading me round?well my right hand offended me but my left hand was waving free
till it knocked me out
did it?

well my right hand offended me
so I got down on bended knee and I cut it off
did I?
